Prayers to Our Lady of Guadalupe to Drive Away Evil (en Inglés) - Alexander Gabriel of the Cross

The Catholic Church teaches that the Virgin Mary does not possess a power of her own independent from God, but rather acts as an intercessor. Every prayer addressed to Mary seeks her maternal mediation before Christ. Since the apparitions of 1531 at Tepeyac, Guadalupe has been recognized as a close Mother, a comfort to the humble, and a protector in the midst of suffering, with the promise that continues to sustain countless faithful: "Am I not here, I who am your mother?"

The apparitions awakened an immense fervor toward Our Lady of Guadalupe and transformed her image into a sign of faith, hope, and unity for entire generations. In her figure, history, devotion, and spiritual consolation are united, making Guadalupe a maternal presence to whom many turn to ask for protection, inner peace, and strength in the face of temptation, fear, and the trials of life.

This book, Prayers to the Virgin of Guadalupe to Ward Off Evil, draws upon this ancient and venerable tradition to offer a selection of prayers aimed at asking for the intercession of the Virgin Mary in order to attain good and turn away from evil. It includes spaces to note intentions, biblical passages, and texts for novenas and devotion that help one pray with recollection, trust, and perseverance under the mantle of Guadalupe.
