Day Seven.
Our Lady of America, you asked that the youth of our nation be the
leaders of a movement of renewal on the face of the earth. You asked
that they be prepared by instilling into them, not only the knowledge of
the Divine Indwelling, but a serious study of it, living it in such a
way that the Divine Presence becomes, as it were an intimate and
necessary part of their life and daily living. From this will flow a
great love, a conflagration that will envelop the world in the flames of
Divine Charity.”
Please intercede for us that we
may be granted this grace and morally good leaders who will act
according to the revealed will of God and the foundational principles of
the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United
States of America.
After praying the daily petition for each day, pray the following:
Sister Mildred’s Prayer to Our Lady of America
O Immaculate Mother, Queen of our
Country, open our hearts, our homes, and our Land to the coming of
Jesus, your Divine Son. With Him, reign over us, O heavenly Lady, so
pure and so bright with the radiance of God’s light shining in and about
you. Be our Leader against the powers of evil set upon wresting the
world of souls, redeemed at such a great cost by the sufferings of your
Son and of yourself, in union with Him, from that same Savior, Who loves
us with infinite charity.
We gather about you, O chaste and
holy Mother, Virgin Immaculate, Patroness of our beloved Land,
determined to fight under your banner of holy purity against the
wickedness that would make all the world an abyss of evil, without God
and without your loving maternal care.
We consecrate our hearts, our
homes, our Land to your Most Pure Heart, O great Queen, that the kingdom
of your Son, our Redeemer and our God, may be firmly established in us.
We ask no special sign of you,
sweet Mother, for we believe in your great love for us, and we place in
you our entire confidence. We promise to honor you by faith, love, and
the purity of our lives according to your desire.
Reign over us, then, O Virgin
Immaculate, with your Son Jesus Christ. May His Divine Heart and your
most chaste Heart be ever enthroned and glorified among us. Use us, your
children of America, as your instruments in bringing peace among men
and nations. Work your miracles of grace in us, so that we may be a
glory to the Blessed Trinity, Who created, redeemed, and sanctifies us.
May your valiant Spouse, St.
Joseph, with the holy Angels and Saints, assist you and us in “renewing
the face of the earth.” Then when our work is over, come, Holy
Immaculate Mother, and as our Victorious Queen, lead us to the eternal
kingdom, where your Son reigns forever as King. Amen.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be . . .
By thy holy and Immaculate Conception, O Mary, deliver us from evil!
