MARY HELP OF CHRISTIANS-150 - NOVENA - Day 2

2018 - is a very special year! It is 150 years since the Basilica of Mary Help of Christians in Valdocco, Turin was consecrated, in 1868. We shall pray the Novena together this year... as loving children of the Help of Christians, and grow closer to our Saviour, Lord Jesus Christ. 


16th May, 2018 - Day 2

Taking that sweet Ave, which from Gabriel came, 
peace confirm within us, changing Eve's name.

BIBLE READING:


“And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord: be it done to me according to your word.” (Luke 1: 38)


In short, Mary Most Holy offers us an example of humility, obedience and readiness to do the Will of God and to cooperate in bringing about His Plan of Salvation. "Lord, what do You wish me to do? Make me an instrument of Your peace."


PRAYER: 
Mary Most Holy, Mother of goodness and mercy, who with your visible help oftentimes freed the Christian people from the assaults and barbarism of Moslems, I ask you, my Lady, to deliver my soul from the onslaughts of the world, the devil and the flesh; and grant that I may obtain, at all times, complete victory over the enemies of my soul

(Remember your Intentions here)

Our Father... Hail Mary... Glory Be... Hail Holy Queen.
Mary, Help of Christians, Pray for us
