Today (Monday, the 18th) is the beginning of the novena to Our Lady of Perpetual Help whose feast is celebrated on June 27.

The perpetual novena (at least, the version that I’m used to hearing every week)

The Novena Prayer
(followed by Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory be x3)
O Mother of Perpetual Help, behold me a miserable sinner at your feet. I have recourse to you and put my trust in you ; O Mother of Mercy, have pity upon me.

I hear you called by all the refuge and the hope of sinners; be then my refuge and my hope. Help me for the love of Jesus Christ. Stretch forth your hand to me, a poor sinner, who recommend and dedicate myself to you as your perpetual servant.I bless and thank God for having in His Mercy given me this confidence in you, the pledge , as I believe of my eternal salvation.

Alas, too often in past times have I miserably fallen because I had not recourse to you . I know that with your help I shall conquer, I know that you will help me, if I recommend myself to you , but I fear lest in the occasion of failing I should cease to call upon you and so should lose my soul.

This then is the grace I seek from you , and I beg of you , as far as I know how and can, to obtain it for me namely, in the assaults of hell, always to have recourse to you and to say to you ; O Mary help me. Mother of Perpetual Help, suffer me not to lose my God. Amen.

Blessed feast to everyone.

Also today is the feast day of St. Cyril who was a great defender of the title “Mother of God” for our lady.
