Sub Tuum Praesidium

We fly to thy patronage, O holy Mother of God; Despise not our petitions in our necessities, but deliver us always from all dangers, O glorious and blessed Virgin. Amen.

The Rosary Draws Us Close to Jesus Christ Our Healer

We can expect to be changed by prayer because “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). That means that his power to save, to heal hearts and minds, is the same yesterday, today and forever. We come into contact with him when we think about his mysteries in faith. In this, we are like Mary, who “pondered these things in her heart” (Luke 2:19).

The Rosary is a superior way of thinking about Christ’s mysteries. It adds to our meditation the full force, power, wisdom and love of the Mother of God. In praying it, we make true what Mary said of herself: “My soul magnifies the Lord” (Luke 1:46). If you want to study Jesus Christ, look to the Blessed Virgin Mary.

O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.
O Blessed Virgin Mary, Our Lady of Walsingham, Mother of God and our most gentle Queen and Mother, look down in mercy upon us, our parish, our country, our homes, and our families, and upon all who greatly hope and trust in thy prayers. By thee it was that Jesus, our Saviour and hope, was given to the world; and He has given thee to us that we may hope still more. Plead for us your children, whom thou didst receive and accept at the foot of the Cross, O sorrowful Mother. Intercede for our separated brethren, that with us in the one true fold they may be united to the Chief Shepherd, the Vicar of thy Son. Pray for us all, dear Mother, that by faith, fruitful in good works, we all may be made worthy to see and praise God, together with thee in our heavenly home. Amen.
