(Personal intention for deeper conversion)
St. John Bosco - " ...Only two things can save us in such a grave hour: devotion to Mary and frequent Communion. Let us do our very best to use these two means and have others use them everywhere."
O Saint John Bosco, you loved the Blessed Virgin, Mary Immaculate Help of Christians, taking her as your Mother and Guide, and becoming her apostle. Pray for us that, inspired by your example, we may grow in true and enduring love for this sweetest of mothers, and may thus win her powerful protection in life and especially at the hour of our death.
Through your intercession may God grant me the grace of deeper conversion so that together with others I may assist in bringing young people to the love of Mary Our Help. May you, who on earth had such great devotion to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament and to Mary Help of Christians, and who always had compassion for those who were suffering, obtain from Jesus and His Heavenly Mother the grace I now request, and also a sincere resignation to the Will of God.
Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be to the Father…

Blessed Frederic Janssoone - First Pilgrimage Director at Our Lady of the Cape, Witness to the Prodigy of the Eyes and processed the crown in 1904
Almighty and eternal God,
You granted to Blessed Frederic Janssoone,
son of France,
to follow the footsteps of your Son Jesus
in the Holy Land, and to work there for peace.
Then You led him to Canada,
to invite that nation
to be generous toward the Holy Land,
to found the Sanctuary of the Cap-de-la-Madeleine,
and to better make known
the life of Jesus of Nazareth and His most holy Mother.
Grant us to become in turn, true pilgrims,
and veritable missionaries of your Church.
That we also may be equally
solid pillars of the faith in our Christian communities.
Grant us, through his intercession,
the favor that we ask… the conversion of Canada.
Grant this son of Saint Francis of Assisi,
to be canonized soon,
and to draw us all toward Your Son
Jesus, Our Lord. Amen.
Our Father… Hail Mary… Glory be to the Father…

Pope St. Pius X - Authorized Canonical Crowning of Our Lady of the Cape on October 12, 1904
you sought to restore all things in Christ.
Obtain for me a true love of Jesus
so that I may live only for him.
Help me to acquire a lively fervor
and a sincere will to strive for sanctity of life,
and that I may avail myself
of the riches of the Holy Eucharist in sacrifice and sacrament.
By your love for Mary, Mother and Queen of all,
inflame my heart with tender devotion to her.
Blessed model of the priesthood,
obtain for us holy, dedicated priests,
and increase vocations to the religious life.
Dispel confusion and hatred and anxiety,
and incline our hearts to peace and concord,
so that all nations will place themselves
under the sweet reign of Christ. Amen.
[Mention your intention here...].
Saint Pius X, Pray for us.
