THESE TWO NOVENAS CONTAIN SOME OF THE
MANY TITLES
ATTRIBUTED TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
MARY IMMACULATE NOVENA
O MARY
IMMACULATE, Lily of Purity, I congratulate thee,
because from the very first instant of thy conception
thou wast filled with grace. I thank and adore the
Most Holy Trinity for having imparted to thee favors so sublime.
O, Mary, full of grace, help me to share, even though just a little,
in the fullness of grace so wonderfully bestowed on thee,
in thine Immaculate Conception. With lively confidence in thy
never-failing intercession, we beseech thee to obtain for us
the intentions of this Novena [mention them] and also that
purity
of mind, heart and body necessary to unite us with God. Amen.

PRAYER
IMMACULATE
HEART of Mary, full of love for God and mankind,
and of compassion for sinners, I consecrate myself entirely to you.
I entrust to you the salvation of my soul. May my heart be ever
united with yours, so that I may hate sin, love God, and my
neighbor, and reach eternal life together with those whom I love.
Mediatrix of All Graces and Mother of Mercy, remember
the infinite treasure which your Divine Son has merited by His
sufferings and which He has confided to you for us, your children.
Filled with confidence in your motherly Heart, which I venerate
and love, I come to you with my pressing needs.
Through the merits of your loving Heart, and for the sake of
the Sacred Heart of Jesus, obtain for me the favor I ask:
[Mention your request.]
Dearest
Mother, if what I ask for should not be according to
God's Will, pray that I may receive that which will be of greater
benefit to my soul. May I experience the kindness of your
motherly Heart and the power of your intercession with Jesus
during life and at the hour of my death. Amen.
