Santa María de Guadalupe, Mística Rosa, intercede por la Iglesia, protege al Soberano Pontífice, oye a todos los que te invocan en sus necesidades. Así como pudiste aparecer en el Tepeyac y decirnos: “Soy la siempre Virgen María, Madre del verdadero Dios”, alcánzanos de tu Divino Hijo la conservación de la Fe. Tu eres nuestra dulce esperanza en las amarguras de esta vida. Danos un amor ardiente y la gracia de la perseverancia final. Amén. (de Devocionario Catolico)

It may be accessed through PC or through mobile devices. The website also includes a section named Santa Missa, which contains the daily text of the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
  • [N.B.2, Please note that not all of the historical forms of the Divine Office contained at Divinum Officium would fulfill the canonical obligation of clergy and religious, although we submit that they would be of spiritual and devotional aid to all Catholics. Please inquire with competent authority on which form would validly constitute the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite.]
