Heavenly Father, bless
Your church with an abundance
of holy and zealous priests,
deacons, brothers and sisters.
Give those You have called
to the married state and
those You have chosen to live
as single persons in the world,
the special graces
that their lives require.
Form us all in
the likeness of Your Son
so that in Him, with Him,
and through Him we may
love You more deeply,
and serve You more faithfully,
always and everywhere.
With Mary, we ask this
through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Hail Mary Full of Grace,
the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among woman
and blessed is the
fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary Mother of God
pray for us sinners
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen
