Today we celebrate the birthday of Our Blessed Mother Mary, as it is 9 months from the Immaculate Conception.
I wonder what that must have been like for Sts. Anne and Joachim. Did they have any inkling that she was the greatest creature every created by God? How did they prepare her for her mission to be the theotokos?
So in honor of her birthday is the Litany of the Virgin Mary:
| Lord, have mercy,Lord, have mercy. Chrlst, have mercy, Christ have mercy. Lord, have mercy, Lord, have mercy |
| Response for the following: Have mercy on us. God our Father ln Heaven God the Son, Redeemer of the world God the Holy Spirit Holy Trinity, one God |
| Response for the following: Pray for us. Holy Mary Holy Mother of God Most honored of virgins Mother of Christ Mother of the Church Mother of divine grace Mother most pure Mother of chaste love Mother and virgin Sinless Mother Dearest of Mothers Model of motherhood Mother of good counsel Mother of our Creator Mother of our Savior |
| Virgin most wise Virgin rightly praised Virgin rightly renowned Virgin most powerful Virgin gentle in mercy Faithful Virgin |
| Mirror of justice Throne of wisdom Cause of our joy |
| Shrine of the Spirit Glory of Israel Vessel of selfless devotion Mystical Rose Tower of David Tower of ivory House of gold Ark of the covenant Gate of heaven Morning star Health of the sick Refuge of sinners Comfort of the troubled Help of Christians |
| Queen of angels Queen of patriarchs and prophets Queen of apostles and martyrs Queen of confessors and virgins Queen of all saints Queen conceived without sin Queen assumed in to heaven Queen of the rosary Queen of families Queen of peace |
| Blessed be the name of the Virgin Mary, Now and forever. |
