Closing Prayer
Remember O most gracious Virgin of Guadalupe, that in thy celestial Apparition on the Mount of Tepeyac, thou didst promise to show thy compassion and pity towards all who, loving and trusting in thee, seek thy help and call upon thee in their necessities and afflictions; also to hearken to Our supplications, to dry Our tears and to give us consolation and relief.
Inspired with this confidence we come before thy august presence, certain that thou will deign to fulfill thy merciful promises. We are full of hope that, standing beneath thy protection nothing will trouble or afflict us. Thou has desired to remain with us through thy admirable image, thou who art Our Mother, Our health and Our life.
O Mary, Mother of God, hear Our petitions and in thy mercy answer us. Amen.
