PRAYERS TO OUR LADY OF MOUNT CARMEL

O most beautiful flower of Mt. Carmel,

fruitful vine, splendor of heaven,
Immaculate Mother of the Son of God,
listen to our prayers as we beg for your intercession with God.
O Star of the Sea, help us and show us
that you are truly our Mother.
O holy Mary, Mother of God,
Queen of Heaven and earth,
we humbly beseech you from the bottom of our hearts
to help us in our necessities.
In particular, I ask for this special favor <pause>…
Show us that you are truly our Mother. Amen.
Queen Beauty of Carmel, pray for us.
That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Prayer of Consecration
O Mary, Queen and Mother of Carmel,
I come today to consecrate myself to you,
for my life is but a small return
for the many graces and blessings
that have come to me through your hands.
Since you regard with an eye of special kindness
those who wear your scapular,
I implore you
to enlighten the darkness of my mind with your wisdom,
to increase in me faith, hope, and charity;
that I may render day by day my debt of humble homage to you.
May your Scapular
keep your eyes of mercy turned towards me
and bring me your special protection
in the daily struggle to be faithful
to your Divine Son and to you.
May it separate me from all that is sinful in life
and remind me constantly of my duty
to behold you and to clothe myself with your virtues.
From henceforth
, I shall strive to live
in the sweet companionship of your spirit,
to offer all to Jesus through you,
and to make my life the mirror
of your humility, charity, patience, meekness, and prayerfulness.
O dearest Mother,
support me by you
r never failing love;
that I, an unworthy sinner,
may come one day to exchange your Scapular
for the wedding garment of heaven,
and live with you and the saints of Carmel
in the kingdom of your Son.
Amen.
