Novena: Day 1 Say the following prayers, 

Psalms  139

LORD, you have probed me, you know me:

you know when I sit and stand; 

you understand my thoughts from afar.

You sift through my travels and my rest;

with all my ways you are familiar.

Even before a word is on my tongue,

LORD, you know it all.

Behind and before you encircle me

and rest your hand upon me.

Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,

far too lofty for me to reach. 

Where can I go from your spirit?

From your presence, where can I flee?

If I ascend to the heavens, you are there;

if I lie down in Sheol, there you are 

If I take the wings of dawn 

and dwell beyond the sea, 

Even there your hand guides me,

your right hand holds me fast.

If I say, “Surely darkness shall hide me,

and night shall be my light” 

Darkness is not dark for you,

and night shines as the day.

Darkness and light are but one. 

You formed my inmost being;

you knit me in my mother’s womb. 

I praise you, because I am wonderfully made;

wonderful are your works!

My very self you know.

My bones are not hidden from you,

When I was being made in secret,

fashioned in the depths of the earth. 

Your eyes saw me unformed;

in your book all are written down; 

my days were shaped, before one came to be.

How precious to me are your designs, O God;

how vast the sum of them!

Where I to count them, they would outnumber the sands;

when I complete them, still you are with me. 

When you would destroy the wicked, O God,

the bloodthirsty depart from me! 

Your foes who conspire a plot against you

are exalted in vain.

Do I not hate, LORD, those who hate you?

Those who rise against you, do I not loathe? 

With fierce hatred I hate them,

enemies I count as my own.

Probe me, God, know my heart;

try me, know my thoughts. 

See if there is a wicked path in me;

lead me along an ancient path. 

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. 

Rosary: 

The Sorrowful Mysteries 

The Magnificat: [Luke 1:46-55]  

The soul rejoices in the Lord

My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior
for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant.

From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his Name.

He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.

He has shown the strength of his arm,
he has scattered the proud in their conceit.

He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
and has lifted up the lowly.

He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.

He has come to the help of his servant Israel
for he has remembered his promise of mercy,
the promise he made to our fathers,
to Abraham and his children for ever.

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. 

Plus Say these   prayers  

1) Source of love and mercy: 

Although it is deserving of thine anger and punishment, look with mercy on our nation, which has offended thee by condoning the killing of millions of innocent children, thy precious sons and daughters, who, like all of us, were created in thine image and likeness, but whose only offense was their very existence.

Amen. 

2) O Blessed Lord Jesus Christ, Our Redeemer, whose inestimable gift of self-sacrificing love provided the means of Salvation for all mankind through the shedding of thine innocent blood: grant that all may come to know thee, serve thee and love thee, and thus may know the meaning of true freedom and true liberty, which never destroys, but always serves and protects life. amen. O Holy Spirit, source of wisdom, knowledge, understanding, counsel, fortitude, piety and holy fear: inspire us with these gifts.  Fill the hearts of the leaders of this nation, especially those who have the temporal power and the grave responsibility to make and interpret and execute laws, with the desire to do God’s will, to restore justice and to establish laws that govern the people of this land in conformity with the Divine Law, laws that will preserve, protect and defend the lives of all sons and daughters of God, from their earliest beginnings until death.
