Prayer to Our Lady of Guadalupe
Mary, Our Lady of Guadalupe and patroness of the Americas, you brought an end to the
human sacrifices on the Aztec altars in the 16th century by means of your image on the
cloak of St. Juan Diego. So now we ask you to come to our aid and bring an end to the
sacrificing of our preborn children on the altar of sexual excess and convenience. Bring us
leaders who will respect life from the first moment of conception until natural death. Make
them strong, honest and moral men and women. And, through their efforts, save our nation
from moral annihilation and make us a culture of life! Holy Virgin of Guadalupe, Queen of
Peace, save the nations and peoples of this continent! Amen.
