For those who began this Novena at Assumption Grotto today, you may be glad to find the text here, if you cannot make it back there each day.
Bookmark it and come back to pray this Novena each day until the feast. I am assuming it is ok for us to read the part of the priest.
Priest: A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.
People: O Immaculate Virgin, Mother of God and Mother of men, we believe with all the fervor of our faith in your triumphal Assumption into heaven, where you are acclaimed as Queen by all the choirs of angels and the legions of saints. We unite with them to praise and bless the Lord who has exalted you above all creatures, and to offer you the tribute of our devotion and love.
From the valley of tears, we seek your heavenly assistance and tender mercy, to confort us in all our trials. Accept the intentions we offer you in this novena, and be pleased to present them to your Son, for we are confident that in the glory where you reign, you continue your manifold intercession to bring us celestial and temporal gifts.
The glory which you possess in body and soul in heaven is th eimage and beginning of the Church as it is to be perfected in the world to come. Until that day of the Lord shall come, continue to shine forth on earth as a sign of certain hope and comfort for all of your children, O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
Priest: Let us Pray. Almighty everlasting God, who assumed into celestial glory the body and soul of your Son's Mother, the Immaculate Virgin Mary, grant we beg you, that being ever intent up on heavenly things, we may merit to share in her glory. We ask this through Christ our Lord.
People: Amen.
Priest: Queen assumed into heaven,
People: Pray for us.
