The Novena to Our Lady Queen of Peace – The title of “Queen of Peace” is given to Mary because she is the mother of Jesus, the “Prince of Peace”, who reconciled Heaven and Earth. Mary stood at the foot of the cross, where Christ merited peace for the whole world. She is our intercessor with her Son to obtain the spirit of love, unity and reconciliation. In 1917 Pope Benedict XV added the advocation “Queen of Peace” to the Litany of Loreto (Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary). The Queen of Peace is often depicted with the Child Jesus sitting on her lap in one hand and holding an olive branch in the other.

Holy Virgin, venerable Queen of Peace, obtain for me of your Son the peace which He has left as a heritage to His disciples. The world knows it not and cannot give it; it resides only in hearts pure and sanctified by grace. May I preserve this heavenly peace with my superiors by submission and respect; with my equals by meekness; with my inferiors by patience and kindness; with God, and with myself by the practice of all virtues. Grant it also to the Church, to my family, to my friends, and to all humankind. Obtain for me the grace to live here on earth in the peace of innocence in order to merit the eternal peace of Heaven. Amen.
