Mondays with Mary: Mother of Mercy Prayer

Blessed Virgin Mary, 

who can worthily repay you with praise and thanks 

for having rescued a fallen world by your generous consent!  

Receive our gratitude, 

and by your prayers obtain the pardon of our sins. 

Take our prayers into the sanctuary of heaven 

and enable them to make our peace with God.

Holy Mary, help the miserable, 

strengthen the discouraged, 

comfort the sorrowful, 

pray for your people, 

plead for the clergy, 

intercede for all women consecrated to God. 

May all who venerate you feel now your help and protection.  

Be ready to help us when we pray, 

and bring back to us the answers to our prayers.  

Make it your continual concern to pray for the people of God, 

for you were blessed by God 

and were made worthy 

to bear the Redeemer of the world, 

who lives and reigns forever.  

Amen. 

~Saint Augustine of Hippo~

With the sad news of the Malaysian flight 370

most certainly thought to have crashed into the Indian Ocean,

there are so many families who will be dealing

with the loss of loved ones.

I know that our Blessed Mother

can relate to these families.

May we pray for their loss and 

the grieving they will endure.
