Prayer

Heavenly Mother, filled with God's grace,

pray for us today and all days,

that we may strive to be

as trusting, patient and faithful,

as you were, so that we may one day

join you and all Saints in Heaven.

In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

Immaculate Mary, assumed into Heaven,

teach us to trust in God's plan the way you did.
