Father in heaven, by whose grace the virgin mother of thy incarnate Son was blessed in bearing him, but still more blessed in keeping thy word: Grant us who honor the exaltation of her lowliness to follow the example of her devotion to thy will; through the same Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

On Mondays through Saturdays at 12pm we offer prayers at the shrine of Our Lady of Fifth Avenue that include the traditional recitation of the Angelus, prayers from the diocesan and Anglican cycle, and intercessions. Shrine prayers, and the daily Mass that follows, are audio livestreamed and then available on-demand.

- Purchase a Candle
- An Act of Spiritual Communion
My Jesus,
I believe that you are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love you above all things,
and I desire to receive you into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment
receive you sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace you as if you were already there and unite myself wholly to you.
Never permit me to be separated from you.
Amen.
