Ave Maria Stella

Hail, Star of the sea! Blessed Mother of God, yet ever a virgin!
O happy gate of heaven!

Thou that didst receive the Ave from Gabriel's lips, confirm us in peace, and so let Eva be changed into an Ave of blessing for us.

Loose the sinner's chains, bring light to the blind, drive from us our evils, and ask all good things for us.

Show thyself a mother, and offer our prayers to him, who would be born of thee, when born for us.

O incomparable Virgin, and meekest of the meek, obtain us the forgiveness of our sins, and make us meek and chaste.

Obtain us purity of life, and a safe pilgrimage; that we may be united with thee in the blissful vision of Jesus.

Praise be to God the Father and to the Lord Jesus, and to the Holy Ghost: to the Three one self-same praise.

Amen.

V. Hail Mary, full of grace, alleluia.

R. The Lord is with thee, alleluia.

Prayer of St. Pio of Pietrelcina
Feast day September 23rd

St. Padre PioStay with me, Lord, for it is necessary to have You present so that I do not forget You
You know how easily I abandon You.

Stay with me, Lord, because I am weak and I need Your strength,
That I may not fall so often.

Stay with me, Lord, for You are my life,
And without You, I am without fervor.

Stay with me, Lord, for you are my light,
And without You, I am in darkness.

Stay with me, Lord, to show me Your will.

Stay with me, Lord, so that I hear Your voice
And follow You.

Stay with me, Lord, for I desire to love You
Very much, and always be in Your company.

Stay with me, Lord, for as poor as my soul is,
I want it to be a place of consolation for You, a nest of love.

Stay with me, Jesus, for it is getting late and the day is coming to a close, and life passes;
Death, judgment, eternity approaches. It is necessary to renew my strength,
So that I will not stop along the way and for that,
I need You.

It is getting late and death approaches,
I fear the darkness, the temptations, the dryness, the cross, the sorrows.
O how I need You, my Jesus, in this night of exile!

Stay with me tonight, Jesus, in life with all it’s dangers. I need You.

Let me recognize You as Your disciples did at the breaking of the bread,
so that the Eucharistic Communion be the Light which disperses the darkness,
the force which sustains me, the unique joy of my heart.

Stay with me, Lord, because at the hour of my death, I want to remain united to You,
If not by communion, at least by grace and love.

Stay with me, Jesus, I do not ask for divine consolation, because I do not merit it,
But the gift of Your Presence, oh yes, I ask this of You!

Stay with me, Lord, for it is You alone I look for, Your Love, Your Grace, Your Will, Your Heart, Your Spirit,
Because I love You and ask no other reward but to love You more and more.

With a firm love, I will love You with all my heart while on earth
And continue to love You perfectly during all eternity. Amen


Prayer to Mary

Most Blessed Virgin Mary,

We sincerely pray, and we entrust the United States of America to your loving care. We beg of you to reclaim this land for the glory of your Son.

Overwhelmed with the burden of the sins of our nation, we cry to you from the depths of our hearts and seek refuge in your motherly protection. Look down with mercy upon us and touch the hearts of our people. Open our minds to the great worth of human life and to the responsibilities that accompany human freedom.

Free us from the falsehoods that lead to the evil of abortion and threaten the sanctity of family life.

Grant our country the wisdom to proclaim that God’s law is the foundation on which this nation was founded, and that He alone is the True Source of our cherished rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

O Merciful Mother, give us the courage to reject the “culture of death” and give us the strength to build a new Culture of Life.

Lead us into the Millennium of Life and trusting in your most powerful intercession, we pray:

Remember, O Most Gracious Virgin Mary,
that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection,
implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, we fly unto thee,
O Virgin of virgins, our Mother for to thee do we come,
before thee we stand, sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not our petitions, but in thy mercy, hear and answer us.

Amen
