Evening prayer to the Virgin Mary: summary

Evening prayer to Our Lady

Mother forgiving and good, this evening I want to lay at your feet the burden of my day, that of my work and labors, and especially the burden of my offenses and infidelities to the Lord. I come to offer you everything, begging you to address to the Father in Heaven thanks for the abundance of His benefits and a request for forgiveness for my shortcomings.

And after placing myself completely in your motherly hands, I come to ask, for the last time, for a look of benevolence, the loving smile you destine for your children. After sustaining the weariness of an entire day, we are happy to find in the evening a loving refuge, a smiling kindness.

Your appearance so welcoming and understanding will make me forget all the difficulties I have encountered this day; I will be able to sleep in peace, knowing that you continue to love me and watch over me. With this comforting assurance, my fatigue will not prevent me from responding to your smile, and it will be in the sweet joy of your affection that I will surrender my soul to the Lord for the rest of my whole being. Amen.

Good night, Holy Mother of Jesus and my beloved mother!

Evening prayer to Our Lady who unties knots

Virgin Mary, Mother who never abandoned a child crying out for help, Mother whose hands work ceaselessly for your beloved children because they are driven by divine love and the infinite mercy that comes out of your heart, turn your compassionate gaze toward me, look at the heap of 'knots' choking my life.

You know my despair and pain. You know how these knots paralyze me, and I place them all in Your hands.

No one, not even the devil, can remove me from Your merciful help. In your hands there is not a knot that is not untied.

Virgin Mother, by your grace and power of intercession with your Son Jesus, my Savior, receive this 'knot' (name it if possible) today. For the glory of God I ask you to untie it and untie it forever. I hope in you.

You are the only comforter the Father has given me. You are the fortress of my weak strength, the riches of my miseries, the deliverance from all that prevents me from being with Christ.

Receive my request. Preserve me, guide me, protect me. Be my refuge.

Mary, who loosens knots, pray for me.

Evening prayer to Our Lady of Lourdes

Mary, you appeared to Bernadette in the cleft
Of this rock.
In the cold and darkness of winter,you made the warmth of a presence be felt,
light and beauty.

In the wounds and darkness of our lives,
In the divisions of the world where evil is powerful,
brings hope
And restore confidence!
You who are the Immaculate Conception,
Come to the aid of us sinners.
Give us the humility of conversion,
The courage of penance.
Teach us to pray for all men.
Lead us to the springs of true Life.
Make us pilgrims walking within your Church.
Satiate in us the hunger for the Eucharist,
The bread of the path, the bread of Life.
In you, O Mary, the Holy Spirit has done great things:
In his power, he brought you to the Father,
In the glory of your Son, living forever.
Look with a mother's love
The miseries of our body and heart.
Shine as a bright star for all
At the moment of death.

With Bernadette, we pray to you, O Mary,
With the simplicity of children.
Put the spirit of the Beatitudes in our souls.
Then we can, from down here, know the joy of the Kingdom
And sing with you:
Magnificat!

Glory to you, O Virgin Mary,
Blessed servant of the Lord,
Mother of God,
Temple of the Holy Spirit!

Prayer to Our Lady of Fatima

Mary, Mother of Jesus and of the Church, we need You. We long for the light that radiates from Your goodness, the comfort that comes to us from Your Immaculate Heart, the charity and peace of which You are Queen.

We confidently entrust to You our needs that You may relieve them, our sorrows that You may soothe them, our ills that You may heal them, our bodies that You may make them pure, our hearts that they may be filled with love and contrition, and our souls that with Your help they may be saved.
Remember, Mother of Goodness, that to your prayers Jesus refuses nothing.
Grant relief to the souls of the departed, healing to the sick, prey to the young, faith and concord to families, peace to mankind. Call the errant back to the straight path, give us many vocations and holy priests, protect the Pope, the Bishops and the holy Church of God.

Mary, hear us and have mercy on us. Turn your merciful eyes upon us. After this exile show us Jesus, blessed fruit of thy womb, O merciful, O pious, O sweet Virgin Mary. Amen.
