Mary,
you are always with the brothers and sisters of your Son
as we seek to follow in his footsteps.
Help us keep our hearts open to God and to the needs of one another.
Be with those who struggle with disease and illness, tension and tragedy.
Help us bring peace and reconciliation wherever it is needed.
Help us to protect and look after each other.
Help us bring moments of healing and grace into each other’s lives.
Help us to be God’s heart in the heart of the world.
This we ask through your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen
