The Order of the Magnificat of the Mother of God has a special purpose the preservation of the Deposit of Faith through religious education in all its forms. God has established him as “a bulwark against the almost general apostasy” which has invaded Christendom and in particular the Roman Church.
May the divine Child Jesus make you feel His Infinite Love and fill your heart with happiness and peace on this special day as we celebrate His birth.
The Angel’s message to the shepherds:
“Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you great joy, which shall be to all the people: for to you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord. – Glory be to God in the highest, and on earth, peace to men of good will!”
(Gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Saint Luke 2: 10-14)

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.
