OUR FAITH

PRAYER 

Gracious God, 

we thank you for mothers- our own mothers and mothers everywhere. We pray for those entrusted with the responsibility of motherhood. Grant each mother your wisdom, guidance and strength and give to each of them patience, devotion and dedication. We ask this prayer through Christ our Lord. 

Amen

We pray ... 

for..... a new Pope, for all our mothers and maternal figures who we love dearly and for all candidates who are preparing to make their First Reconciliation and First Eucharist this term.
