introduction
Day 1
Day 1 Prayer: Dearest Lady of Guadalupe, you reminded your servant Juan Diego that God “created all things and He is the Lord of Heaven and Earth.” We ask you to intercede on behalf of couples who suffer with infertility and who long desperately for children, that the Triune God will gift them with the blessing of a child. We ask this through Christ Our Lord and together we pray…
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be
Day 2
Day 2 Prayer: Dearest Lady of Guadalupe with confidence in the words you uttered to your servant, Juan Diego, “I am the Ever-Virgin Mother of the True God who gives life and maintains its existence”. We dare to approach you and to ask your intercession for those who have suffered the heart wrenching loss of one or more children through miscarriage. Please ask the “One who gives life and maintains its existence” to hear the pleas of these couples, to heal their emotional, physical and psychological wounds so that they may conceive and carry a child to term according to His Will.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be

Loving Mother intercede this day to heal all children in the womb who have been given a terminal diagnosis. Pray to the Almighty Father to cure them according to His Holy Will, and to console and heal their parents during their trials so that all may live the full length of their lives on earth devoted to serving the Gospel. We ask this through Christ Our Lord and together we pray…
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be
Day 5
Day 5 Prayer: Dearest Lady of Guadalupe, you said to Juan Diego that you “desire a Church where people can experience your compassion.” This day I bring to your merciful embrace all your children broken under the weight of abortion who no longer feel worthy of your compassion or your Son’s boundless mercy. In your tender compassion intercede for each of these your children, asking God to bring them to repentance, to heal their brokenness and to restore them in Christ Jesus. We ask this through Christ Our Lord and together we pray…
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be
Day 6
Day 6 Prayer: Dearest Lady of Guadalupe, you told Juan Diego that although there were many you could have appeared to, you chose him to spread your message of hope to the Mexican people and “to all the rest who love you, invoke you, and confide in you.” Let this message resound deep within the souls of children who have been adopted. Let them be secure in the truth that they have been chosen by God with their adoptive families, to form one family of love. Fill their hearts with gratitude for their biological families and ease any feelings of abandonment that may linger. We ask this through Christ Our Lord and together we pray…
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be
Day 7
Day 7 Prayer: Dearest Lady of Guadalupe, you said to your servant, Juan Diego, “let nothing worry or disturb you”. We ask that you quell the fears of mothers who find themselves with an unplanned or unwanted pregnancy. Give them the confidence to turn to God with profound surrender and to choose life for their children. We ask this through Christ Our Lord and together we pray…
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be
Day 8
Day 8 Prayer: Dearest Lady of Guadalupe, you uttered these words to your faithful servant Juan Diego, “Only Peace.” Let this peace found only in Christ Jesus fall upon birth mothers who have bravely and lovingly chosen to give their children life by placing them in loving adoptive homes. We ask this through Christ Our Lord and together we pray…
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be
Day 9
Day 9 Prayer: Dearest Lady of Guadalupe, on this final day of our novena, we humbly present to you all our petitions. We thank you for hearing our prayers and interceding on behalf of all those suffering with infertility, miscarriage or infant loss; for those struggling to forgive themselves after abortion and for those who have made the courageous decision to place their child in a loving adoptive family. We look to you with hope, you who are truly our Mother and under whose shadow and protection we are, as we recall your words to Juan Diego, “Here I will hear their weeping, their sorrow, and will remedy, and alleviate all their multiple sufferings, necessities and misfortunes.” With hearts full of gratitude we pray…
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be
