Immaculate
Virgin Mary, you were pleasing in the sight of God from the first moment of
your conception in the womb of your mother, Saint Anne.
You were chosen
to be the Mother of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I believe the teaching of Holy Mother Church,
that in the first instant of your conception, by the singular grace and
privilege of Almighty God, in virtue of the merits of Jesus Christ, Savior of
the human race and your beloved Son, you were preserved from all stain of
original sin. I thank God for this
wonderful privilege and grace He bestowed upon you as I honor your Immaculate
Conception.
Look graciously
upon me as I implore this special favor:
(Mention your request).
Virgin
Immaculate, Mother of God and my Mother, please intercede for me as these
prayers now rise before God. Filled with
confidence in your goodness and power, I ask you to help me in this journey of
life and to preserve me from all that is displeasing to God. I entrust myself entirely to you, knowing that
you will help me to avoid sin and to always live a humble and pure life. I consecrate myself to you forever, for my
firm desire is to love your Divine Son Jesus.
Mary, since those devoted to you have never been known to perish, pray
that I too may be saved.
Amen.
