ELECTION PRAYER TO MARY O most Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of Mercy, we entrust the United States of America to your loving care, and beg you to reclaim this land for the glory of your Son. Overwhelmed with the burden of the sins of our nation, we cry to you from the depths of our hearts and seek refuge in your motherly protection. Look down with mercy upon us and touch the hearts of our people. Open our minds to the great worth of human life and to the responsibilities that accompany human freedom. Free us from the falsehoods that lead to the evil of abortion and threaten the sanctity of family life. Grant our country the wisdom to proclaim that God s law is the foundation on which this nation was founded, and that He alone is the True Source of our cherished rights to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. O Merciful Mother, give us courage to reject the culture of death and the strength to build a new Culture of Life. Trusting in your most powerful intercession, we pray: Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, we fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, our Mother. To thee do we come, before thee we stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not our petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer us. AMEN. NATIONAL NIGHT OF PRAYER FOR LIFE DECEMBER 8TH AT 9:00PM It was on the feast of the Immaculate Conception that Our Lady of Guadalupe, first appeared to St. Juan Diego.
