Novena to Our Lady of Medjugorje

I found this amazing novena on the university of Dayton website. they have a section on their site called “all about Mary” filled with inspiring articles and prayers such as these. https://udayton.edu/imri/mary/index.php

Thank you for sharing..

“Devotion to Our Lady of Medjugorje has sprung up almost immediately after the revelation to the visionaries in 1981.

These messages are spoken to the world so many may convert from their profane living and repent that they may live their lives in service of Our Lord Jesus.

The summons of Our Blessed Lady is for all and anyone who would hear her.”

Prayer to the Mother of Goodness, Love and Mercy Queen of Peace

O Mother of goodness, love and mercy, I love you infinitely and I offer myself to you. By means of your goodness, your love and your grace, save me. I desire to be yours. I love you infinitely and desire you to protect me.

From the depth of my heart I pray you, Mother of goodness. Let me gain heaven by means of it. I pray you, by your infinite love, to give me the grace, so that I may love every man, as you have loved Jesus Christ. I pray you to give me the grace to be mericful towards you.

I offer myself to you completely and desire that you follow my every step, because you are full of grace and I desire that I will never forget this. And if, by chance, I should lose grace I pray you to restore it to me once more. Amen.

First Day: Happy Are the Poor in Spirit

Scripture reading: “How happy are the poor in spirit, theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:3

Prayer: On May 2, 1982 you told us that you came to call the world to conversion; I ask that you help me convert my heart to the will of your son that I may have the poverty of spirit to know that without Him I will never gain Heaven. I ask that you obtain for me the gift of total dependence on the work and word of your son Jesus; do His will on earth, be happy with Him one day in Heaven.

Second Day: Happy Are the Gentle

Scripture Readings: “Happy the gentle, they shall have the earth for their heritage.” Matthew 5:4

Prayer: On December 25, 1989 you called us ‘little children’ and asked us to read the messages you send each day. I ask you to help me accept the messages and to be gentle as a child when I tell them to others so that they may accept what Jesus wants for them on this earth, as when a child explains a story.

Third-Day: Happy are Those Who Mourn

Scripture Reading: “Happy those who mourn; they shall be comforted.” Matthew 5:5

Prayer: On August 6, 1982 you asked us to pray for peace. O Blessed Virgin Mary, teach me to pray for those who do not mourn their sins and thus bring such heartaches to this world by repeating them. Help me always to find ways to show others how their sins offend your Son, that they may change their ways.

Prayer: On June 9, 1984 you told the children to pray for the Spirit of Truth! This spirit you asked for that your words, repeated by the children, would be exactly as you spoke them. I pray for the spirit of truth in all that I do and say. I also pray that I may teach others the spirit of truth so that they may find a deeper love of Justice.

I ask that you help me, Blessed Lady, with this work.

Help me to be a messenger of peace as you are. Teach me to draw hearts to God as you have come to do. Let me show others that we are all children of God and therefore brothers and sisters to one another.
