A Rosary Novena
My dearest Mother Mary, behold me, your child, in prayer at your feet. Accept this Holy Rosary, which I offer you in
accordance with your requests at Fatima, as a proof of my tender love for you, for the intentions of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, in atonement for the offenses committed against your Immaculate
Heart, and for this special favor which I earnestly request in my Rosary Novena. I beg you to present my petition to your Divine
Son. If what I ask for should not be granted, pray that I may receive that which will be of greater benefit to my soul.
Sweet Heart of Mary, be my salvation
