Opening Prayer (by all)

Hail, Infant Mary, destined to be the Mother of God and our loving Mother by the heavenly graces you lavish upon us, mercifully listen to my supplications. In the needs which press upon me from every side and especially in my present tribulation, I place all my trust in you. 

O holy Child, by the privileges granted to you alone and by the merits which you have acquired, show that the source of spiritual favors and the continuous benefits which you dispense are inexhaustible, because your power with the Heart of God is unlimited.  

Deign through the immense profusion of graces with which the Most High has enriched you from the first moment of your Immaculate Conception; grant me, O Celestial Child, my petition, and I shall eternally praise the goodness of your Immaculate Heart.

Novena Prayer by the Priest

Day One (August 30th) Mary: The model of Faith

O Infant Mary, Our Mother, it is indeed right to celebrate with festivity and universal joy Your Holy Birth, for you first saw the light of this world, a baby with great merit and virtue. Your soul was the most beautiful that God had ever created after the work of the Incarnation of the Eternal World. You are full of grace, elected by God, and the Holy Spirit. Vouchsafe that we may praise Your, O Sacred Virgin, grant us aid in our needs (mention your request); give us strength against the enemy of the whole human race. Amen.

Day Two (August 31st)  Mary: The model of Humility

When you were born, O most Holy Virgin, then was the world made light. O Blessed Virgin; You were sanctified in Your mother's womb above all saints and angels. Happy is Your stock, holy Your root, and blessed Your fruit. For You alone as a virgin, filled with the Holy Spirit, did merit to conceive Thy God, as a virgin to bring forth, and after His birth to remain a virgin. Have mercy on us, and give us aid in our necessities O Lady (mention your request), so that just as Your Nativity, glorious from the seed of Abraham, sprung from the tribe of Juda, illustrious from the stock of David, did announce joy to the entire world, so may it fill us with true joy and cleanse us from every sin. Amen. 

Day Three (September 1st ) Mary: The model of Obedience

O Holy and heavenly Infant Mary, You who are the destined Mother of our Redeemer and the great Mediatress of miserable sinners, have pity on us. Behold at Your feet another ungrateful sinner who has recourse to you and asks Your compassion. It is true, that for our ingratitude to God and to Your, we deserve that God should abandon us; but knowing the greatness of your mercy, we believe that You never refuse help to anyone who recommends himself to you with confidence. Pray for us, O Virgin most prudent, and help us in our needs (mention your request). We pray that the gladsome joys of Your most helpful nativity may put a cloak over all sinners Amen. 
 

Day Four (September 2nd) Mary: The model of Mercy

O Infant Mother of God, most exalted creature in the world, there is no one but God above You. The greatest Saints of Heaven are little compared to You; O Saint of Saints, O Mary, Abyss of charity, and full of grace, listen to Your children’s request (mention your request). We know that you are so dear to God that He denies You nothing. O Holy Mother of God, flowering as the lily, pray to Your sweet Son for us. Amen.

Day Five (September 3rd ) Mary: The model of Patience

O Holy Infant Mary, You are said to be full of grace because You had sufficient grace for that state to which You were chosen by God, that is, to be the Mother of His only-begotten Son. We know that Your pleasure is to use Your greatness for the relief of miserable sinners. Ah, then, show how great is the favor that You enjoy with God. By obtaining for us a Divine light and flame so powerful that we may be changed from a sinner into a Saint; and detaching ourselves from every earthly affection, Divine Love may be enkindled in us. Our sweetness and our hope, place our request before the Throne of God (mention your request). Do it for the love of God, Who has made You so great, so powerful, and so compassionate. Amen.

Day Six (September 4th) Mary: The model of Service

Saint Peter Damian says, “As the light of the sun so greatly surpasses that of the stars, that in it they are no longer visible; so does the great Virgin Mother surpass in sanctity the whole court of Heaven.” O Lady, most pure, Your desired, sought, and obtained the salvation of all; effected the salvation of all. So that everything good, and every gift in the order of grace, which each of the Saints received from God, You obtained for them. In honor of Your Most Holy Nativity please aid us in our necessities (mention your request) so that through Your intercession, we may obtain the gifts of Divine love, holy fear, heavenly light, and holy perseverance.  Amen. 
,

Day Seven (September 5th ) Mary: The model of  Forgiveness

Hail Infant Mary, Full of Grace! You are mediatress between God and men., by whom Heaven and earth are brought together and united. Had not You been full of Divine Grace, how could You have become the ladder to Heaven, the advocate of the world, and the most true mediatress between God and man? O Mediatress Plead to God for us (mention your request), so that by you, every creature is repaired; the ruin of the angels is remedied; and human nature is reconciled. Pray for us O Purest Virgin, so that you may worthily be called the repairer of the lost world. Amen. 
 

Day Eight (September 6th) Mary: The model of Purity

O Mother of God, how delightful a sight Your beautiful infant soul must have been to Heaven and earth, although still enclosed in St. Anne’s womb! You were the most amiable creature in the eyes of God, because You were already loaded with grace and merit, and could say, “When I was a little one I pleased the Most High.” O Holy Mary, pray for us and obtain our request (mention your request). May each of us become an infant soul so that like Your, we may also become pleasing to the Most High. Amen.
 

Day Nine (September 7th) Mary: The model of Discipleship
O Loving Infant Queen, God established You as the channel of His mercies therefore He filled You with grace. In honor of Your Holy Nativity, we thank You, our most loving Queen, for all graces that comes to us from Your hands and by Your powerful intercession. O great Virgin, God adorned and distinguished You above all creatures by preserving Your from the stain of original sin. He has deposited the whole treasure of His graces in you so that whatever we possess of hope, grace, and salvation, we owe to you. Pray for us O Blessed Mother and help us in our needs (mention your request). May we always run to You O Mother of the Eternal Word, and Queen of the Universe. Amen.
