Feast of the day: 20 JUNE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY CONSOLATOR
PRAYER
Who will not love you, most amiable Mother my Mary?
For a thousand titles you are our Comforter
such having always been shown in your Shrine in Turin,
where no one ever appealed without receiving comfort
and the consolation he needed.
You, after God, are the dearest object of the tender of my heart.
I consecrate myself to you: dedicating myself entirely to your love,
I am sure I love Jesus Your divine Son.
Assist me, Mother Consolata;
so that under the mantle of your protection,
I can keep myself in the grace of God
and when I leave this earth, I can, together with you,
forever enjoy your Jesus in Heaven.
So be it.
Let three Ave Maria be recited
PRAYER
Consolata Virgin, Bride of the Holy Spirit,
Mother of the Church and of humanity,
you conceived the Word of God made man:
you are hope and consolation for us.
Under the Cross keep silent,
and faithfully accepts the will of the Father.
Help us or Maria, to stay close
to those who struggle and suffer for life.
Fill us with your motherly love,
make us one heart and one soul,
to proclaim how great the Lord is
and his mercy is infinite.
Virgin Consolata, our Mother,
accompany us on the journey of life
and for your thoughtful intercession
get us the graces we ask of you. Amen.

PRAYER
We turn to you, O Consulate Virgin,
impregnable wall and fortress where you are saved.
Disperse the advice of evil,
the pain of your people changes into joy,
makes your voice heard in the world,
fortify those who are devoted to you,
plead for the gift of peace on earth.
Accompany with your powerful intercession
our Diocese of Turin,
who invokes you as patroness.
You are, oh Mother of God, the door of our hope.
Hail, Hail, Hail Mary,
pray, pray, pray for us.
We proclaim you blessed, we people of all generations,
o Virgin Consolata;
in you, the one who overcomes everything,
Christ our God has deigned to dwell.
Blessed are we, who have you as our defense,
because you intercede night and day for us.
We praise you:
"Hello, or full of grace, the Lord is with you!"
Hail, Hail, Hail Mary,
pray, pray, pray for us.
How to call you, O Mary, the full of grace?
I'll call you Heaven:
for thou hast brought forth the sun of righteousness.
Paradise: because in you
the flower of immortality has blossomed.
Virgo: because you have been inviolate.
Pure mother: because you carried a Son in your arms,
God of all of us.
Pray him to save our souls.
O Mother of God, you are the true vine
Who gave the fruit of life.
Hail, Hail, Hail Mary,
pray, pray, pray for us.
We beg you: intercede, O Virgin Consolata,
with the apostles and with all the saints
for God to have mercy on us his children.
You beg Him who was born of you,
o Virgin Mother of God,
a mother's prayer can do much
to obtain the benevolence of the Son.
Indeed, he is merciful and can save us,
He who has accepted to suffer
for us in his flesh.
Hail, Hail, Hail Mary,
pray, pray, pray for us.
We praise you, because for the cross of your Son
hell has been overcome and death mortified,
and we have been marked by the resurrection
and facts worthy of eternal life.
Blessed are you a thousand times,
o Virgin Consolata!
Hail, Hail, Hail Mary,
pray, pray, pray for us.
