Our Lady of Manaoag Church Live Mass Today 18 April 2023 Tuesday of the Second Week of Easter 2nd Day Novena Mass of The Coronation of Our Lady of the Rosary of Manaoag Prayer for Every Day of the Novena Leader: O most clement Virgin O tenderest Mother O sweetest Mary Comforter of the afflicted and Refuge of Sinners Mediatrix between God and men. People: You are Noah’s ark our salvation in the deluge of sin. You are the rainbow of peace our reconciliation with God. You are the dove that brings us the olive branch of peace. As a token of your maternal love you gave to the Catholic world through your son, Dominic, the most holy rosary. Through this devotion pagans were converted heretics brought back to the true fold enemies of the Church vanquished and Christian society reformed. Queen of the Most Holy Rosary we call on you for assistance. You alone did overcome all heresies in the world. Deliver now your Christian people from the snares of the devil. Great was your love for this nation for when the enemies of the Catholic religion threatened to take away our faith you saved us miraculously through your intercession and thus secured for yourself the title of Queen and Mother of the Philippines. Look down with mercy on those who are deceived by the evil one, that they may renounce their heresy and return to the unity of the Catholic truth. Illumine our rulers that under your guidance they may govern this land as worthy representatives of God. Inspire us all to study religion to fulfill the Commandments and to receive the Sacraments which are the essentials of true Christian life. As we became Christians through your intercession we also hope to live as such under your protection. with your Rosary as our anchor we hope to reach that heavenly kingdom where for all eternity we can have you as our Queen and Christ our King. Amen. Special Prayer for Each Day of the Novena Second Day Leader: Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, Mother of the Philippines. People: You visited your cousin Elizabeth and made her happy by your presence and service. Your dignity did not make you proud. You did not use your greatness to overwhelm the lowly but rather to make them happy. In this joyful mystery of the Visitation you carried the Saviour in your womb and brought Him to the hills of Judea where He began His redemptive work with the sanctification of John the Baptist and his mother Elizabeth. Help me to live with your spirit of service. Make me an instrument of God’s peace to sow love and pardon where hatred and injury reign, to bring faith, hope and joy to those in doubt and despair. Help me not to seek to be consoled, but to console, not to seek but to be understood but to understand. Help me spread the fragrance of God’s kindness and mercy so that the love and the peace of your Son, Jesus, may reign in the hearts of all men. Leader: Let us now ask the particular favor we wish to obtain in this novena through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin. (Pause-3 Hail Marys.) Final Prayer for Every Day Leader: Queen of the Most Holy Rosary People: Refuge of the human race we humbly prostrate ourselves before your throne confident that we shall receive mercy, grace, assistance, and protection not through our own inadequate merits but solely through the great goodness of your maternal heart. May the sight of the widespread material and moral destruction the sufferings and sorrows of countless human beings move you to compassion. Leader: O Mother of Mercy People: Obtain peace for us from God and procure for us those graces which prepare, establish and assure that peace. Queen of peace, pray for us and give to the world and to the Philippines the peace in the truth, justice and charity of Christ. Leader: Lastly, O Queen of Heaven People: As the Church and the entire human race are consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus so that in reposing all hope in Him He might become for them the pledge of victory and salvation; so we in like manner consecrate ourselves to you Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, You, who have chosen to raise your throne of mercy in Manaoag, to be the beloved protectress and Patroness of the Province of Pangasinan, and from there to bestow your graces on us, your children, banished in this valley of tears. Look down with your eyes of mercy upon us, who are beset with so many dangers of body and soul. Despise not our petitions, O Dearest Mother, but intercede for us before your Divine Son now and at the hour of our death. AMEN. Minor Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary of Manaoag
