Our Lady of Lourdes


Mary, the Mother of the Lord, has received from the faithful the title of Advocate:  she is our advocate before God.  And this is how we see her, from the wedding-feast of Cana onwards:  as a woman who is kindly, filled with maternal concern and love, a woman who is attentive to the needs of others and, out of desire to help them, brings those needs before the Lord.  

~Pope Benedict, 9/12/06 Homily 


Dearest Mary,
Mother Most Wonderful,
thank you for bringing all my needs
before your Beloved Son, Jesus.  
Please help me to do whatever He tells me, 
today and always.  
Amen.
