News: POPE FRANCIS ADDS THREE NEW TITLES TO LITANY OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
Pope Francis has approved the inclusion of three additional invocations in the Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary, also called the Litany of Loreto. In a June 20 letter to the presidents of bishops’ conferences, Cardinal Robert Sarah, prefect of the Congregation for the Divine Liturgy and the Discipline of the Sacraments, said the invocations “Mater misericordiae,” (Mother of Mercy) “Mater spei,” (Mother of Hope) and “Solacium migrantium” (Comfort of migrants) should be inserted in the Marian litany.
In his letter, Cardinal Sarah noted where each invocation should be added, using the Latin formulations. “Mater misericordiae,” which means, “Mother of mercy,” should be placed after “Mater Ecclesiae” (Mother of the Church). “Mater spei,” which means “Mother of hope,” should follow “Mater divinae gratiae” (Mother of Divine Grace) and “Solacium migrantium,” which means “Comfort of migrants,” should follow “Refugium peccatorum” (Refuge of sinners).
The Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary, also known as the Litany of Loreto, has been an approved prayer for the intercession of Mary by the Church since the late 16th century, with its usage recorded even prior.
