O Virgin Mary,
you are the help of Christians.
Throughout our journey of life
we dedicate ourselves to you
and to the service of Jesus your Son.
We offer our minds, hearts, and bodies
to work for the glory of God
and the salvation of all people.
We pray for the Church throughout the world. Protect the young and help the aged, save sinners and console the dying. You are our joy and our hope, Mary, Mother of Mercy and Gate of Heaven.
We come to your alter in confidence.
We seek to be filled with deep faith,
trustful hope, and selfless charity.
We ask for the grace we need
and the guidance of the Holy Spirit
during our journey of life
and our pilgrimage to heaven.
We make this prayer
through Christ your Son and our Lord.
Amen.
