NOVENA TO OUR MOTHER OF PERPETUAL HELP (Wednesday Devotion)
Oh Mother of Perpetual Help, grant that I may ever invoke your powerful name, the protection of the living and the salvation of the dying. Purest Mary, let your name henceforth be ever on my lips. Delay not, Blessed Lady, to rescue me whenever I call on you. In my temptations, in my needs, I will never cease to call on you, ever repeating your sacred name, Mary, Mary. What a consolation, what sweetness, what confidence fills my soul when I utter your sacred name or even only think of you! I thank the Lord for having given you so sweet, so powerful, so lovely a name. But I will not be content with merely uttering your name. Let my love for you prompt me ever to hail you Mother of Perpetual Help. Mother of Perpetual Help, pray for me and grant me the favor I confidently ask of you. (Then say three Hail Marys).
PRAYER FOR THE HOME
MOTHER OF PERPETUAL HELP * WE CHOOSE YOU AS QUEEN OF OUR HOMES. WE ASK YOU TO BLESS ALL OUR FAMILIES * WITH YOUR TENDER MOTHERLY LOVE. MAY THE SACRAMENT OF MARRIAGE * BIND HUSBANDS AND WIVES SO CLOSELY TOGETHER * THAT THEY WILL ALWAYS BE FAITHFUL TO EACH OTHER * AND LOVE ONE ANOTHER AS CHRIST LOVES HIS CHURCH.
WE ASK YOU TO BLESS ALL PARENTS. MAY THEY LOVE AND CHERISH THE CHILDREN * WHOM GOD HAS ENTRUSTED TO THEM. MAY THEY ALWAYS GIVE THEM THE EXAMPLE * OF A TRULY CHRISTIAN LIFE. HELP THEM TO BRING UP THEIR CHILDREN * IN THE LOVE AND FEAR OF GOD. BLESS ALL CHILDREN * THAT THEY MAY LOVE, HONOR AND OBEY * THEIR FATHERS AND MOTHERS. TO YOUR LOVING CARE * WE ESPECIALLY ENTRUST THE YOUTH OF TODAY.
GIVE US ALL A SENSE OF RESPONSIBILITY * THAT WE MAY DO OUR PART * IN MAKING OUR HOME A HAVEN OF PEACE * LIKE YOUR OWN HOME AT NAZARETH. WE TAKE YOU AS OUR MODEL. HELP US TO GROW DAILY IN GENUINE LOVE OF GOD AND NEIGHBOR * SO THAT JUSTICE AND PEACE MAY HAPPILY REIGN * IN THE ENTIRE FAMILY OF MANKIND. AMEN.
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.
Prayer to Our Mother of Perpetual Help ~ Financial Help
Realizing, dear Mother Mary,
that thou art our Perpetual Help not only in spiritual
but likewise in temporal necessities,
we approach thee with submissive and humble hearts,
because we have a child-like confidence in thy power and goodness, beseeching thee to assist us in our present financial worry. Owing to untoward circumstances which have arisen in our lives, we are in dire want, being unable to meet our honest debts.
We are not asking, dearest Mother for wealth,
if possession of it is not in accordance with the holy will of God;
we merely beg for that assistance which will enable us
to satisfy our pressing oblig*tions.
We believe, dear Mother,
that thou art the Queen of heaven and earth,
and, as such, the instrument and special dispensation of thy Son Jesus Christ; that thou hast acquired by virtue of thy wonderful dignity, a sweet jurisdiction over all creation.
We believe that thou art not only rich and bountiful,
but extremely kind and generous to all thy loving children.
We plead with thee then, dear Mother,
to obtain for us the help we so urgently need in our present financial difficulty. We thank thee, dear Lady and promise to publish far and wide, the marvels of thy glorious Picture. Amen!
Our Mother of Perpetual Help, Thank you for being there for us always, for your intercession in all our prayers especially in difficult circumstances. Amen. God bless you all!
