Novena for the
Immaculate Conception
Preparatory Prayer
(Said Each Day)
Come, O Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of the faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love.
      Virgin most pure, conceived without sin, all fair and stainless in your conception; glorious Mary, full of grace, Mother of God, Queen of Angels, I humbly honor you as Mother of my Savior, who, though He was God, taught me by his own veneration, reverence, and obedience to you, the honor and homage that are due to you.  I pray to you, then, to accept this novena which I dedicate to you.  You are the safe refuge of the penitent sinner; it is very fitting, then, that I should have recourse to you.  You are the Mother of Compassion; then you will surely be moved with pity for my many miseries.  You are my best hope after Jesus, so accept the loving confidence that I have in you.

Concluding Prayer
(Said Each Day)
In your conception, O Virgin, you were immaculate.
      Pray fo us to the Father, whose Son was born of you.
Let us pray:
      O God, who through the Immaculate Conception of a virgin did prepare a worthy dwelling for your Son, we ask you, who by the death of that Son, foreseen by you,  did preserve her from all stain of sin, grant that by her intercession we also may be purified, and so may come to you.  Through Christ, Our Lord.  Amen.
