Prayer Warriors Wanted!
The well-known traditional priest and exorcist, Father Chad Ripperger, has composed and published an excellent, non-partisan, and entirely Catholic prayer to consecrate the upcoming U.S. elections to the Blessed Virgin Mary, Patroness of the United States of America. I present the text here as copied from KnightsRepublic.com, although it is available at numerous Catholic sites. No further comment is really needed; the prayer speaks for itself. Please pray it daily until at least November 5, and given recent history, it may be necessary to keep praying it for some time thereafter. We have no greater ally in the Church Militant than our Blessed Mother. Let’s give her the chance to help us.
Consecration of the Election to the Blessed Virgin Mary
Mary Immaculate, living tabernacle of the Divinity, where the eternal Wisdom lies hidden to be adored and served by angels and men, Queen of Heaven and Earth, beneath whose sway are subject all things that are lower than God, Patroness of the United States of America, sorrowful and mindful of our own sinfulness and the sins of our nation, we come to thee, our refuge and hope.
Knowing that our country cannot be saved by our own works and mindful of how much our nation has departed from the ways of thy Son, we humbly ask that thou wouldst turn thine eyes upon our country to bring about its conversion. We consecrate to thee the integrity of the upcoming election and its outcome, so that what is spiritually and morally best for the citizens of our country may be accomplished, and that all of those who are elected would govern according to the spiritual and moral principles which will bring our nation into conformity with the teachings of thy Son.
Give grace to the citizens of this land so that they will choose leaders according to the Sacred Heart of thy Son, that His glory may be made manifest, lest we be given the leaders we deserve. Trusting in the providential care of God the Father and thy maternal care, we have perfect confidence that thou wilt take care of us and will not leave us forsaken.
O Mary Immaculate, pray for us.
Amen.
Laudetur Jesus Christus!
