Mother Mary

 

 

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy!
Our life, our sweetness, and our hope!
To thee do we cry, poor banished
children of Eve, to thee do we send
up our sighs, mourning and weeping
in this valley, of tears.
Turn, then, most gracious advocate,
thine eyes of mercy toward us; and
after this our exile show unto us the
blessed fruit of thy womb Jesus;
O clement, O loving, O sweet virgin Mary.

 Pray for us, O holy Mother of God
That we may be made worthy of the
promises of Christ.

      The first public miracle Jesus ever performed
was because His Mother requested it.

Having Mother Mary in our corner is always a good thing.

It's my blog and I'll cry if I want to.....

These are my Rosary beads that don't get used as much as they should.
My Aunt Mary asked me to try and pray at least one decade a day.
That's not very much to ask.
Is it?
Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
