Antiphon.
Who is she that comes forth as the morning rising, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army set in battle array?
My soul glorifies the Lord,*
my spirit rejoices in God, my Saviour. β
He looks on his servant in her lowliness;*
henceforth all ages will call me blessed.
The Almighty works marvels for me.*
Holy his name!
His mercy is from age to age,*
on those who fear him.
He puts forth his arm in strength*
and scatters the proud-hearted.
He casts the mighty from their thrones*
and raises the lowly.
He fills the starving with good things,*
sends the rich away empty.
He protects Israel, his servant,*
remembering his mercy,
the mercy promised to our fathers,*
to Abraham and his sons for ever.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world with out end, Amen.

V/. O Mary, conceived without sin.
R/. Pray for us who have recourse to you.
Let us pray:
O Lord Jesus Christ, our mediator with the Father, you have been pleased to appoint the most Blessed Virgin, your Mother, to be our mother also, and our mediatrix with you, mercifully grant that whoever comes to you seeking your favours may rejoice to receive all of them through her. Amen.

God our Father,
You inspired your servant Frank Duff with a profound insight into the mystery of your Church, the Body of Christ, and of the place of Mary the Mother of Jesus in this mystery.
In his immense desire to share this insight with others and in filial dependance on Mary, he formed her Legion to be a sign of her maternal love for the world and a means of enlisting all her children in the Churchβs evangelising work.
We thank you Father for the graces conferred on him and for the benefits accruing to the Church from his courageous and shining faith. With confidence we beg you that through his intercession, you grant the petition we lay before you...
(Pause and silently state your intentions)
We ask too that if it be in accordance with your will, the holiness of his life may be acknowledged by the Church for the glory of your Name.
Through Christ Our Lord, Amen.
β In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
