Celebrate Mary’s Birthday
The Church observes the feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary on Friday, September 8. On that day, we will begin an octave of prayer at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. You are invited to entrust your intentions to the Mother of God, for Our Lady desires that all souls unite with her Son Jesus. You may also request to burn a Votive Light in Our Lady’s honor.
Be sure to read Fr. Kevin’s letter to learn more about the commemorative birthday candle members are creating. “O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.”
Blessed are you, holy Virgin Mary, deserving of all praise;
from you rose the sun of justice, Christ our God.
Alleluia acclamation, September 8, 2023
