Prayer of Pope John XXIII 

Love of Mary

Holy Immaculate Mary, help all who are in trouble.  

Give courage to the faint-hearted,

console the sad, heal the infirm, 

pray for the people, intercede for the clergy, 

have a special care for nuns;

may all feel, all enjoy your kind and powerful assistance,

all who now and always render you honor,

 and will offer you their petitions.

Hear all our prayers, O Mother, and grant them all.  

We are all your children; 
grant the prayers of your children.

Amen forever.
