The Regina Caeli


We say this prayer in place of the Angelus during Easter time.

Queen of heaven, rejoice, Alleluia.
For he whom you deserved to bear, Alleluia
Has risen as he said. Alleluia.
Pray for us to God. Alleluia.
Rejoice and be glad, O virgin Mary.
Alleluia
For the Lord is truly risen. Alleluia


Let us pray

O God, who by the Resurrection of your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, granted joy to the whole world: grant, we beg you, that through the intercession of the Virgin Mary, his Mother, we may lay hold of the joys of eternal life. Through the same Christ our Lord.

Amen.

O Virgin Mary


O Virgin Mary, My Mother, I give to your Immaculate Heart, my body and my soul, my thoughts and my actions.

I want to be what you want me to be, and do just what you want me to do.

I am not afraid because you are always with me. Help me to love your Son Jesus, with all my heart and above all things.

Take my hand in yours so I can always be with you.

Amen
