(Opening prayer)
Special prayer for this day
O Miraculous Mother, thou hast impressed and crowned thy Medal with twelve bright stars to show that thou art Queen of Apostles, and through them, of all the Heavenly Host. In thy virtues and thy merits, thou dost surpass all the saints; in thy heart and soul thou dost keep the flame of divine love burning more ardently than the most devoted seraph. From thy vast treasury of virtues and of merits, make up what is wanting in my petition. By thy all embracing charity, turn thy ear to my request, that loving thee and serving thee here below, I may deserve to shine as one of thy stars for all eternity. O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.
