According to the Apostolic Penitentiary, a partial indulgence is granted to those who, on the feast of any Saint, recite in his honour the oration of the Missal or any other approved by legitimate Authority.
V. O Lord, hear my prayer.
R. And let my cry come unto thee.
Let us pray.
Almighty and eternal God, who hast wonderfully deigned to protect Thy people beneath the shelter of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Help of Christians: mercifully grant; that being safely delivered from the weapons and snares of all our enemies, we may ever rejoice in Thy peace.
Let us pray.

Through Jesus Christ, Thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
R. Amen.
Nota bene ~ Mary, Help of Christians is not celebrated on the Universal Calendar, but according to the Martyrology, today is the Feast Day. The Collect is taken from the Proper of Masses for Certain Places (pro Aliquibus Locis).

Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Leo XIV as the Vicar of Christ, the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
