Pray Now and let us honor Our Lady who unceasingly intercedes for us.

On this Solemnity of the Assumption, let us honor Our Lady who unceasingly intercedes for us.

Prayer to Our Lady of the Assumption by Pope Pius XII

O Immaculate Virgin, Mother of God and Mother of Humanity,
we believe with all the fervor of our faith
in your triumphal Assumption
both in body and in soul into heaven
where you are acclaimed as Queen
by all the choirs of angels and all the legions of saints;
we unite with them to praise and bless the Lord who has exalted you above all other pure creatures
and to offer you the tribute of our devotion and our love.

We know that your gaze,
which on earth watched over
the humble and suffering humanity of Jesus,
in heaven is filled with the vision of that humanity glorified
and with the vision of uncreated Wisdom,
and that the joy of your soul
in the direct contemplation of the adorable Trinity
causes your heart to throb with overwhelming tenderness;
and we, poor sinners whose bodies weigh down the flight of the soul,
beg you to purify our hearts so that,
while we remain below,
we may learn to see God
and God alone in the beauties of his creatures.

We trust that your merciful eyes
may deign to gaze down upon our miseries and anguish,
upon our struggles and our weaknesses;
that your countenance may smile upon our joys and our victories;
that you may hear the voice of Jesus saying to you of each one of us,
as he once said to you of his Beloved Disciple:
“Behold your son,”
and we who call upon you as our Mother,
we, like John, take you as the guide, strength and consolation of our mortal life.

We are inspired by the certainty that your eyes,
which wept over the earth crimsoned by the blood of Jesus,
are yet turned toward this world racked by wars and persecutions,
the oppression of the just and the weak.
From the shadows of this vale of tears,
we seek in your heavenly assistance,
tender mercy,
comfort for our aching hearts,
and help in the trials of Church and country.
We believe finally that in the glory where you reign,
clothed with the sun and crowned with stars,
you are, after Jesus,
the joy and gladness of all the angels and the saints,
and from this earth,
over which we tread as pilgrims,
comforted by our faith in the future resurrection,
we look to you our life, our sweetness, our hope;
draw us onward with the sweetness of your voice,
so that one day, after our exile,
you may show us Jesus,
the blessed fruit of your womb.
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
Amen.

Our Lady of the Assumption, pray for us!

CONSECRATION TO THE IMMACULATE HEART.
By Saint Padre Pio

O MARY, Virgin most powerful and Mother of mercy, Queen of heaven and Refuge of sinners, we consecrate ourselves to your Immaculate Heart. We consecrate to you our very being and our whole life; all that we have, all that we love, all that we are. To you we give our bodies, our hearts and our souls; to you we give our homes, our families, our country. We desire that all that is in us and around us may belong to you, and may share in the benefits of your motherly benediction.

And that this act of consecration may be truly efficacious and lasting, we renew this day at your feet the promises of our Baptism and our first Holy Communion. We pledge ourselves to profess courageously and at all times the truths, of our Holy Faith,and to live as Catholics who are duly submissive to all the directions of the Pope and the Bishops in communion with him. We pledge ourselves to keep the commandments of God and His Church, in particular to keep holy the Lord’s day. We likewise pledge ourselves to make the consoling practices of the Christian religion, and above all, Holy Communion, an integral part of our lives, in so far as we shall be able to do so.

Finally, we promise you, O glorious Mother of God and loving Mother of all, to devote ourselves whole-heartedly to your service, in order to hasten and assure, through the sovereignty of your Immaculate Heart, the coming of the kingdom of the Sacred Heart of your adorable Son, in our own hearts and in the hearts of all, in our country and in all the world, as in heaven, so on earth.
Amen.

The Holy Rosary

The Holy Rosary is one of the most cherished devotions in the Catholic Church. More than a series of repeated prayers, it is a beautiful meditation on the life, Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ through the loving eyes of His Blessed Mother, the Virgin Mary.

For centuries, countless Catholics have prayed the Rosary for peace, guidance, healing, protection, conversion, and strength during life's joys and trials. Saints and popes have continually encouraged the faithful to make the Rosary a daily habit because it draws us closer to Christ and deepens our relationship with God.

As St. Padre Pio said:

"The Rosary is the weapon for these times."

What Is the Holy Rosary?

The Rosary is a form of meditative prayer that combines vocal prayer with reflection on the Gospel.

While praying the Apostles' Creed, Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be, and the Fatima Prayer, we meditate on important moments in the lives of Jesus and Mary called the Mysteries of the Rosary.

The purpose of the Rosary is not simply to repeat prayers but to contemplate Christ's saving work and allow His life to transform our own.

The Rosary helps us:

• Pray for the sick and suffering.

Every Rosary prayed with faith becomes an offering of love to God.

A Brief History of the Rosary

According to Catholic tradition, the Blessed Virgin Mary entrusted the Rosary to St. Dominic in the early 13th century to encourage meditation on the Gospel and strengthen the faith of Christians.

Over the centuries, the Rosary became one of the Church's most beloved devotions. In 2002, Pope St. John Paul II introduced the Luminous Mysteries, enriching the Rosary by including key events from Jesus' public ministry.
