Mother, I thank you for your third apparition to Blessed Juan Diego when, after this unsuccessful attempt to have a temple built, you said to him, 'So be it, son.
Return tomorrow in order that you may secure for the Bishop, the sign for which he has asked.
When this is in your possession, he will believe you; he will no longer doubt your word
and suspect your good faith.
Be assured that I shall reward you for all that you have undergone.

Glory Be...

Our Lady of Guadalupe, my Queen and my Mother, I thank you for your fourth apparition
to Blessed Juan Diego when you ordered him to pick the roses he would find on the summit of the hill and bring them to you.
I thank you for arranging them in his tilma when you said, 'This cluster of roses is the sign
that you shall take to the Bishop.
You are to tell him, in my name, that in this he will recognize my will and that he must fulfill it.
You will be my ambassador, wholly worthy of my confidence.
Only in the presence of the Bishop shall you unfold your mantle and disclose that which you carry.'
I thank you for your image printed on the tilma which appeared when the roses were released.

Pray:
3x Hail Marys...
Glory Be...

Closing Prayer:
Remember, O most gracious Virgin of Guadalupe, that in thy celestial apparition on the Mount of Tepeyac, thou didst promise to show thy compassion and pity towards all who,
loving and trusting thee, seek thy help and call upon thee in their necessities and afflictions;
also to hearken to our supplications, to dry our tears and to give us consolation and relief.

Inspired with this confidence we come before thy august presence, certain that thou wilt deign to fulfil thy merciful promises.
We are full of hope that, standing beneath thy protection nothing will trouble or afflict us.
Thou has desired to remain with us through thy admirable image, thou who art our Mother,
our health and our life.

O Mary, Mother of God, hear our petitions and in thy mercy answer us.

Amen
