   Patroness of the Americas.
 
 Novena in Honour of 'Our Lady of Guadalupe'
 First DayDearest Lady of Guadalupe, fruitful Mother of holiness, 
teach me your ways of gentleness and strength. Hear 
my humble prayer offered with heartfelt confidence to 
beg this favour......Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.
 
 
Second DayO Mary, conceived without sin, I come to your throne 
of grace to share the fervent devotion of your faithful 
Mexican children who call to you under the glorious 
Aztec title of Guadalupe. Obtain for me a lively faith 
to do your Son's holy will always: May His will be done 
on earth as it is in heaven.Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.
Third DayO Mary, whose Immaculate Heart was pierced by seven 
swords of grief, help me to walk valiantly amid the 
sharp thorns strewn across my pathway. Obtain for me 
the strength to be a true imitator of you. This I ask 
you, my dear Mother. Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.
Fourth DayDearest Mother of Guadalupe, I beg you for a fortified 
will to imitate your divine Son's charity, to always 
seek the good of others in need. Grant me this, I humbly 
ask of you.Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.
Fifth DayO most holy Mother, I beg you to obtain for me pardon 
of all my sins, abundant graces to serve your Son more 
faithfully from now on, and lastly, the grace to praise 
Him with you forever in heaven.Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.
Sixth DayMary, Mother of vocations, multiply priestly vocations 
and fill the earth with religious houses which will 
be light and warmth for the world, safety in stormy 
nights. Beg your Son to send us many priests and religious. 
This we ask of you, O Mother.Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.
Seventh DayO Lady of Guadalupe, we beg you that parents live 
a holy life and educate their children in a Christian 
manner; that children obey and follow the directions 
of their parents; that all members of the family pray 
and worship together. This we ask of you, O Mother.Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.
Eighth DayWith my heart full of the most sincere veneration, 
I prostrate myself before you, O Mother, to ask you 
to obtain for me the grace to fulfil the duties of my 
state in life with faithfulness and constancy.Our father, Hail Mary, Glory.
Ninth DayO God, You have been pleased to bestow upon us unceasing 
favours by having placed us under the special protection 
of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary. Grant us, your humble 
servants, who rejoice in honouring her today upon earth, 
the happiness of seeing her face to face in heaven."Let not your heart be disturbed. Do not 
fear that sickness, nor any other sickness or anguish. 
Am I not here, who is your Mother? Are you not under 
my protection? Am I not your health? Are you not happily 
within my fold? What else do you wish? Do not grieve 
nor be disturbed by anything."Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory.
