O Divine Eternal Father,
in union with your Divine Son and the Holy Spirit,
and through the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
I beg You to destroy the Power of your greatest enemy -
the evil spirits.

Cast them into the deepest recesses of hell
and chain them there forever!
Take possession of your Kingdom which You have created
and which is rightfully yours.

Heavenly Father,
give us the reign of the Sacred Heart of Jesus
and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

I repeat this prayer out of pure love for You
with every beat of my heart and with every breath I take.

Amen

Pope Saint Leo the Great (Pont. 440-461)

Against Error

O God, you who have established the foundations of your Church upon the holy mountains: Grant that she may not be moved by any wiles of error which would fain compass her overthrow, nor may she be shaken by any earthly disquietude, but ever stand firmly upon the ordinances of the Apostles, and by their help, be kept in safety.

Against Worldliness

Grant to us, O Lord, not to mind earthly things, but rather to love heavenly things, that while all things around us pass away, we even now may hold fast those things which abide forever.

For Truth

O Lord: Give to your people, we pray you, the Spirit of Truth and of Peace, that they may know you with all their minds; and that, following with all their hearts after those things which are pleasing to you, they ever may possess the Gifts of your Bountiful Goodness.

For Divine Assistance

Protect, O Lord, those who cry to you for help. Uphold us in our weakness, and cleanse us from our earthliness: and, while we walk in this dying life amidst the shadows of death, quicken us with your Light. Vouchsafe in your mercy to deliver us from all evil, so that we may come to the perfection of all good at last.
 
For the church! Long may it be a bastion of faith and salvation.

Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the Fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of death.

Amen.
 
Holy Trinity, remembering Christ’s promise to be with the Church till the end of time,
we ask that You protect the Church from all confusion and division.
Bless us with grace to accept the inspiration and guidance of the Holy Spirit in the Church.,
Protect the sanctity of the Sacraments; and safeguard canon law.
We ask Your divine protection of the teachings and precepts of the Church

Deepen our knowledge and insight of truth in tradition, faith and morals.
Ensure that all members of the Church without exception live in faith and faithfulness to the spirit and doctrines of the Church. Where anyone may slip into dissension to anything that the Holy Spirit has taught in the Church, please lead them to restate truth and to remedy any scandal or harm to the faithful and to those who may have been misled.

We ask that You continue to protect the Church from secular influences that may harm and restrict the practice of our faith
Lead the clergy, and the Pope to be true and holy shepherds, protecting the correctly-informed faith and morals of Your people.

Bless and protect the Church with the intercession and vigilance of Saint Michael and his Angels, and the intercession of our Mother and the Saints
 
Heavenly Father, look upon our community of faith which is the Church of your Son, Jesus Christ. Help us to witness to his love by loving all our fellow creatures without exception. Under the leadership of the Holy Father and the Bishops keep us faithful to Christ’s mission of calling all men and women to your service so that there may be “one fold and one shepherd.” We ask this through Christ, our Lord. Amen.

May your continual pity, O Lord, cleanse and defend Your Church; and, because without you she cannot endure in safety, may she ever be governed by Your bounty. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, Who lives and reigns with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end. Amen.
