Prayer to Mary Immaculate
Patroness of the United States
Blessed Mother Mary, we turn to you in prayers for all
the people in these United States. We again place ourselves
in your care, in the gentle hands that cradled the Child Jesus.
We ask you to make us more alive in your faith,
more generous in your love,
more trusting in your hope.
Teach us to imitate Jesus, as you did, and always to
follow him with your courage.
Mother Mary, help us to become a people who hunger
for justice and who burn with compassion of those who
suffer in our midst. Make us a poeple who cherish and
defend the dignity of every human person. Free us from
all selfishness and self-interest, that we truly might be
the builders of the Kingdom of God.
Immaculate Mary, Help us to stand among the family of
nations as a people of compassion, generosity, and peace.
Make us a people of vision and courage,
who will gift this world with new life, new hope,
and the unity for which your Son died. O Mary,
conceived without sin, pray for us who turn with confidence
to you today. Amen.
