MEMORARE
ALL: Remember, O most compassionate Virgin Mary, that never was it known
that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your assistance, or sought your
intercession, was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, we fly unto you, O
Virgin of Virgins, our Mother; to you we come, before you we kneel sinful and
sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not our petitions, but in your
clemency hear and answer them. Amen.

NOVENA PRAYER
ALL: O, Immaculate Virgin Mary, Mother of our Lord Jesus and our Mother, penetrated with the most lively confidence in your all-powerful and never-failing intercession, manifested so often through the Miraculous Medal, we, your loving and
trustful children, implore you to obtain for us the graces and favors we ask during this novena, if they be beneficial to our immortal souls and the souls for whom we pray. (Here, privately mention your petitions). You know, O Mary, how often our souls have been the sanctuaries of your Son who hates iniquity. Obtain for us then a deep hatred of sin and that purity of heart which will attach us to God alone so that our every thought,word and deed may tend to His greater glory. Obtain for us also a spirit of prayer and self-denial that we may recover by penance what we have lost by sin and at length attain to that blessed abode where you are the Queen of angels and men. Amen.
ALL: O Lord Jesus Christ, who have vouchsafed to glorify by numberless miracles of the Blessed Virgin Mary
immaculate from the first moment of her conception, grant that all who devoutly implore her protection on earth may
eventually enjoy your presence in heaven, who, with the Father and Holy Spirit, live and reign, God for ever
and ever. Amen
O Lord Jesus Christ , who for the accomplishment of your greatest works, have chosen the weak things of the
world, that no flesh may glory in your sight & who for a better and more widely diffused belief in the Immaculate
Conception of Your Mother, have wished that the Miraculous Medal be manifested to Saint Catherine, grant we beseech You,
that filled with like humilty, we may glorify this mystery by word and work.
Amen.
