Hail Mary...
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.
V. Mary, Help of Christians,
R. Pray for us.

Let us pray: Almighty and everlasting God, Who by the cooperation of the Holy Spirit did prepare the body and soul of the glorious Virgin Mother Mary to become a worthy dwelling for Your Son, grant that as we rejoice in her commemoration, we may, by her loving intercession, be delivered from present evils and from everlasting death. Through Christ Our Lord. Amen.
+ May the blessing of Almighty God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, descend on you and remain with you forever.
R. Amen.
