Memorare to the Blessed Virgin Mary
The Memorare to the Blessed Virgin Mary (Remember O Most Gracious Virgin Mary) is a traditional Catholic prayer of confident petition, in which the faithful call upon Our Lady as a loving mother and powerful intercessor. Drawing on centuries of lived devotion, it begins with a bold act of trust — recalling that no one who has ever sought Mary’s protection, help, or intercession has been left without her aid. From that foundation of faith, the one praying approaches her humbly as a sinner in need, addressing her as Virgin of virgins and Mother of the Word Incarnate, and asking that she hear and answer their prayer with maternal mercy.
