The quest for original purity and spiritual renewal is fundamentally embodied in Catholic liturgy through the mystery of the Immaculate Conception. This collect, taken from the official texts of the Church, is the ultimate prayer to ask for the purification of the soul, prepare one’s heart, and begin a process of profound renewal.
The true prayer of purification and preparation
« O God, who by the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin prepared a worthy dwelling for your Son, grant, we pray, that, as you preserved her from every stain by virtue of the Death of your Son, which you foresaw, so, through her intercession, we, too, may be cleansed and admitted to your presence. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen. »
