Because of it coinciding with Good Friday, this year the Feast of the Annunciation is the Monday after the Octave of Easter

*For an end to abortion and for the protection of all babies in danger of being aborted this day.

I greet thee, ever-blessed Virgin, Mother of God, Throne of Grace, miracle of Almighty Power!  I greet thee, sanctuary of the Most Holy Trinity and Queen of the Universe, Mother of Mercy and Refuge of sinners. 

Most loving Mother, attracted by thy beauty and sweetness, and by thy tender compassion, I confidently turn to thee, miserable as I am, and beg of thee to obtain from thy Dear Son the favor I request in this novena:

Mention you request here

Obtain for me also, O Queen of Heaven, the most lively contrition for my many sins and the grace to imitate closely those virtues which thou practiced so faithfully, especially humility, purity and obedience.  Above all, I beg thee to be my Mother and Protectress, to receive me into the number of thy devoted children, and to guide me from thy high throne of glory.

Do not reject my petitions, O Mother of Mercy!  Have pity on me, and do not abandon me during life and especially at the moment of my death.

+Amen
