For the Preservation of the Deposit of the Faith

For the Kingdom of God to come!

MAGNIFICAT

The particular goal of the Order of the Magnificat of the Mother of God is the preservation of the Deposit of the Faith by religious teaching in all its forms. God has established it as “a rampart against the almost general apostasy” that has invaded Christianity and in particular the Roman Church.

Act of Love

Act of Love

by the holy Curé of Ars. -God loves us with an Infinite Love. Let us also love Him with all our heart.
I love You, O my God, and my only desire is to love You until the last breath of my life.
I love You, O my infinitely lovable God, and I would rather die loving You than live a single instant without loving You.
I love You, O my God, and I desire heaven only to have the happiness of loving You perfectly.
I love You, O my God, and I fear hell only because there will not be the sweet consolation of loving You.
O my God, if my tongue cannot say at every moment that I love You, at least I want my heart to repeat it to You as many times as I breathe.
Oh, give me the grace to suffer while loving You, to love You while suffering, and to die one day while loving You and feeling that I love You.
And the closer I come to my end, the more I beseech You to increase my love and to perfect it.
Amen!
Jesus crowned with thorns

To prepare us for a good death

We are all on earth only in passing. One day we will die, and we will have to account for our lives to our Creator. Our eternity will be happy or unhappy, depending on whether or not we have realized the purpose of our life on earth, which is to love, know and serve God. The sincere repentance of our sins and the acceptance of God’s Will can atone for a lifetime of sins.

Sign of the Cross

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, and of the Mother of God. Amen.

Preparatory Prayer

O Jesus! We are going to walk with You on the road to Calvary which was so painful for You. Make us understand the greatness of Your sufferings, touch our hearts with tender compassion at the sight of Your torments, in order to increase in us the regret of our faults and the love we wish to have for You.
Deign to apply to all of us the infinite merits of Your Passion, and in memory of Your sorrows, show mercy to the souls in Purgatory, especially to those who are most abandoned.
O Divine Mary, who first taught us to make the Way of the Cross, obtain for us the grace to follow Jesus with the sentiments Your Heart was filled with as You accompanied Him on the road to Calvary. Grant that we may weep with You, and that we may love Your divine Son as You do. We ask this in the name of His adorable Heart. Amen.
