Our Lady of Guadalupe
Inspired with this confidence, we fly unto thee, O Mary, ever Virgin Mother of the True God!
Though grieving under the weight of our sins, we come to prostrate ourselves in thy august
presence; certain that thou wilt deign to fulfill thy merciful promises. We are full of hope that,
standing beneath thy shadow and protection, nothing will trouble or afflict us, nor need we
fear illness, or misfortune, or any other sorrow.
Thou hast decided to remain with us through thy admirable image, thou who art our Mother,
our health and our life. Placing ourselves beneath thy maternal gaze and having recourse to
thee in all our necessities we need do nothing more. O Holy Mother of God, despise not our
petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer us. [Here mention your petition.] Five Hail
Mary's.
(In gratitude for the four apparitions to Juan Diego and the one to Juan Bernardino).
