“Thank you so very much” for this Litany. I was able to google it & found it thru EWTN. Praying a litany each month during this pandemic has been a comfort, especially for us seniors. Looking forward to continuing in the months ahead after the morning mass. It starts my day off.

You are so welcome!May the Blessed Mother Protect and guide you.
On this, the feast day of St John Neumann, i had no idea that he had composed this litany. After praying the Office of Readings the thought just popped into my head to search for a Litany to My Mother. I specifically searched for Litany of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, prayed it, then read at the bottom that St John Neumann composed it! It is so comforting to know that I have a family in heaven leading me.
I have looked for this litany in my book and I can’t find but it’s here thanks for the litany
