Prayer to the Queen of Family

Dear Lady of Perpetual Help, spotless Mother of God,
we choose thee as the Mistress
and Lady of this house. Guard it, dearest Mother,
from pestilence, lightning, fire and tempest,
from schisms and heresies, from air-raids, earthquakes
and the malice of enemies.
Protect those who dwell herein, most loving Mother,
watch over our going out and coming in,
and preserve us from sudden death.
Keep us away from all sin and harm
and pray for us, that we may serve God faithfully here,
and afterwards enjoy with thee for evermore
the blissful vision of His face.
Amen.
