THE NOVENA IS SAID BY SAYING THE OPENING PRAYER, THEN THE PRAYERS OF THE DAY, 1 OUR FATHER, 3 HAIL MARY’S AND GLORY BE.

Opening Prayer:
Lord Jesus Christ, You have destroyed the power of death and given the hope of eternal life for body and soul. You granted your Mother a special place in your glory, and did not allow decay to touch her body. As we rejoice in the Assumption of Mary, grant us renewed confidence in the victory of life over death. Amen.

Prayer for Day 9
O Blessed Mother Assumed into Heaven, after years of heroic martyrdom on earth, we rejoice that you have at last been taken to the throne prepared for you in Heaven by the Holy Trinity. Lift our hearts with you in the glory of your Assumption above the dreadful touch of sin and impurity.Teach us how small earth becomes when viewed from heaven. Make us realize that death is the triumphant gate through which we shall pass to your Son and that someday our bodies shall re-join our souls in the unending bliss of heaven.From this earth, which we tread as pilgrims, we look to you for help. In honour of your Assumption into Heaven, we ask for this favour: (Mention your request) At the hour of our death, lead us safely to the presence of Jesus to enjoy the vision of God for all eternity together with you.Pray for us O Queen Assumed into Heaven, pray for us, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Amen.
