Collect of Our Lady of Perpetual Help ~ Indulgenced on the Feast (See Note)

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 everlasting God who has given us to venerate an image of Thy Most Blessed Mother under the special invocation of Our Perpetual Help, grant graciously, that amid all the changes of this our way and life, we may be so defended by the constant protection of that same Immaculate and Ever-Virgin Mary, as to be able to obtain the reward of Thy eternal redemption.
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 ~ Our Lady of Perpetual Help is not celebrated on the Universal Calendar, but according to the Martyrology, today is Her Feast Day. The Collect is taken from the Proper authorised by Bld Pope Pius IX.
