Novena for the (transferred) Feast of the Annunciation

30th of March (Holy Saturday) - 7th April

O most holy Virgin Mary, to whom God sent the Angel Gabriel to announce that you should be the Mother of His only-begotten Son, pray for us who have recourse to thee.

Holy, lovely Mary, We give our all to you. What is past and present, and the future, too.

Blessed be thy holy and Immaculate Conception, dear Mother of God.

The Angelus

℣ The angel of the Lord declared unto Mary. ℟ And she conceived of the Holy Ghost. Hail, Mary... ℣ Behold the handmaid of the Lord. ℟ Be it done unto me according to thy word. Hail, Mary... ℣ And the Word was made flesh. ℟ And dwelt among us. Hail, Mary... ℣ Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God. ℟ That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Let us pray. Pour forth, we beseech Thee, O Lord! Thy grace into our hearts, that we, to whom the incarnation of Christ, Thy Son, was made known by the message of an angel, may, by His passion and Cross, be brought to the glory of His resurrection. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

℣ Angelus Domini nuntiavit Mariæ. ℟ Et concepit de Spiritu Sancto. Ave, Maria... ℣ Ecce ancilla Domini. ℟ Fiat mihi secundum verbum tuum. Ave, Maria... ℣ Et verbum caro factum est. ℟ Et habitavit in nobis. Ave, Maria... ℣ Ora pro nobis, sancta Dei Genitrix. ℟ Ut digni efficiamur promissionibus Christi. Oremus. Gratiam tuam, quæsumus, Domine, mentibus nostris infunde: ut qui, angelo nuntiante, Christi Filii tui incarnationem cognovimus, passionem ejus et crucem ad resurrectionis gloriam perducamur. Per eumdem Christum Dominum nostrum. Amen.
