DAY 27 PRAYER INTENTION: Today, pray for all those who have been kidnapped and are yet to be released; particularly, we pray for all those kidnapped for the sake of bearing witnesses to Christ as Priests, Religious and Missionaries. May the Great Mother of God visit them, console them, protect them, strengthen them, and touch the heart of their abductors, that they be released safe and sound, to the greater glory of God. Amen (Also add your own intention…)
Now, say the 20 decades of the Rosary…
At the end of the 20 decades, say the following Prayers:
Hail Holy Queen
Hail, holy Queen, mother of mercy, our life, our sweetness, and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve. To thee do we send up our sighs mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn then, most gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile show us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!
Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Let us pray
O God, whose only begotten Son, by His life, death, and resurrection, has purchased for us the rewards of eternal salvation. Grant, we beseech Thee, that while meditating on these mysteries of the most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise, through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us! Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us! St. Joseph, pray for us!

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.

O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Prayer to Saint Joseph after the Rosary
To you, O Blessed Joseph, we come in our trials, and having asked the help of your most holy spouse, we confidently ask your patronage also. Through that sacred bond of charity which united you to the Immaculate Virgin Mother of God and through the fatherly love with which you embraced the Child Jesus, we humbly beg you to look graciously upon the beloved inheritance which Jesus Christ purchased by his blood, and to aid us in our necessities with your power and strength.
O most provident guardian of the Holy Family, defend the chosen children of Jesus Christ. Most beloved father, dispel the evil of falsehood and sin. Our most mighty protector, graciously assist us from heaven in our struggle with the powers of darkness. And just as you once saved the Child Jesus from mortal danger, so now defend God’s Holy Church from the snares of her enemies and from all adversity. Shield each one of us by your constant protection, so that, supported by your example and your help, we may be able to live a virtuous life, die a holy death, and obtain eternal happiness in heaven. Amen.
Prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
DAY 27 REFLECTION: HOW IS MARY THE MOTHER OF GOD? MISCONCEPTIONS & CLARIFICATIONS
While praying our rosary throughout this month, some of us must have pondered on the phrase: “Mother of God.” While some believe it is appropriate for Our Lady, others may share a different opinion, probably influenced by non-Catholics. For this reason, on this 27th day, we shall briefly examine this glorious title. Let us begin by clarifying the issue at hand.
The dogma of “Mary Mother of God” has been greatly misunderstood, ranging from non-Catholics to lukewarm Catholics. By saying that Mary is the Mother of God, the Catholic Church is NOT saying that Mary is the source of the divine nature among the three Persons of the Blessed Trinity, NOR is she the source of the divine nature of the second Person (Jesus). An analogy would suffice in aiding our understanding of this topic, and this would come up towards the end of this post.
To say Mary cannot be the Mother of God because Sacred Scripture does not use those explicit words places the Protestants in a very uncomfortable position. They would also have to conclude multiple essential Christian doctrines to be erroneous because they are not found verbatim in the Bible either. Take the Trinity, for example. This doctrine is preeminent among all Christian doctrines—and yet the term “Trinity” is not found in the Bible. Nor are terms like “homoousios” (Greek, “same nature”; Jesus has the “same nature” as his Father) or “hypostatic union” (that is, the union of the nature of man and the nature of God in Christ).

The Protestants may raise another objection, saying: “If God is Trinity, and Mary is the Mother of God, would that not mean Mary is the Mother of the Trinity?” No! Actually, it does not apply.
Through the intercession of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary, may Almighty God bless + you, the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Shalom!
