Our Lady of Walsingham Novena
NOVENA DAY 1 The Annunciation of the Lord INTENTION OF THE DAY: For the grace to do the will of God. OPENING PRAYER: We fly to thy protection, O holy Mother of God. Despise not our petitions in our necessities, but deliver us from all dangers O glorious and blessed Virgin. Amen. REFLECTION: Our Lady heard the Word of God and put it into practice. She listened with a disciple’s ear and did the will of God. With Mary, and taught by her, we too pray, “let it be done to me, according to your Word” (Lk 1:38). Let us offer through Mary every instant of our life and especially those important decisions which we need to make. Let us during our time of Pilgrimage and Novena with Our Lady of Walsingham, search out the silence so necessary to enter into deep prayer and relationship with Jesus to discern our way forward as individuals and as families. We pray for the Pope's intentions and for those of the Universal Church. PRAYER: Virgin Most Holy, Mother of the Word, intercede for us with you...
