Prayer

God our Father,

Above all creatures, you made Mary appear,

Perfect among your creatures, the “Immaculate Conception”.

Here, in Lourdes, she pronounced this name and Bernadette repeated it.

The Immaculate Conception is a cry of hope:

Evil, sin and death have no more victory.

Mary, dawn of salvation!


Mary,

You, the innocence and the refuge of sinners:

Pray for us.


Aver Maria, gratia plena!


Lord Jesus,

You gave us Mary to be our Mother.

She shared your Passion and your Resurrection.

Here, in Lourdes, she showed herself to Bernadette,

Sorrowed by our sins but radiant in your light.

Through her, we present to you our joys and our pains,

Ours, those of the sick, and those of all men.


Mary,

Our sister and our mother,

Our confidant and our pillar of support:

Pray for us.


Ave Maria, gratia plena!


Holy Spirit, you are the Spirit of love and unity.

Here, in Lourdes, through Bernadette, Mary has asked

To build a chapel and to come in procession.

Inspire the Church that Christ has built upon Peter's faith:

Gather her in unity.

Guide the pilgrimage of the Church:

May it be faithful and audacious!


Mary, you who are filled with the Holy Spirit,

You are the bride and the servant.

You are the model of Christians and the maternal face of the Church:

Pray for us.


Ave Maria, gratia plena!

Prayer for the sick

You alone, O Christ, can promptly save Your creation: we implore You, come to visit Your servant N… who is sick. Deliver them from suffering and excesses of pain. Raise them up so that they may sing and glorify You without end, through the prayers of the Mother of God, and all the Saints, O You the one true friend of Men. O Saviour, You made Peter's mother-in-law rise from her sickbed while she was consumed by a burning fever, and You made the paralysed man carry his mat. In your infinite compassion, come now to visit and heal the sick, afflicted in their flesh. For nothing is impossible to You, You alone who carries the suffering and sickness of all the world in Your great mercy.

Thank you! 37 people prayed
