POPE BENEDICT XVI MUST SAY MARIAN PRAYER;

Mary, Mother of the “Yes”, you listened to Jesus,

and know the tone of his voice and the beating of his heart.

Morning Star, speak to us of him,

and tell us about your journey of following him on the path of faith.

Mary, who dwelt with Jesus in Nazareth,

impress on our lives your sentiments,

your docility, your attentive silence,

and make the Word flourish in genuinely free choices.

Mary, speak to us of Jesus, so that the freshness of our faith

shines in our eyes and warms the heart of those we meet,

as you did when visiting Elizabeth,

who in her old age rejoiced with you for the gift of life.

Mary, Virgin of the Magnificat

help us to bring joy to the world and, as at Cana,

lead every young person involved in service of others

to do only what Jesus will tell them.

Mary, look upon the Agora of youth,

so that the soil of the Church will be fertile.

Pray that Jesus, dead and Risen, is reborn in us,

and transforms us into a night full of light, full of him.

Mary, Our Lady of Loreto, Gate of Heaven,

help us to lift our eyes on high.

We want to see Jesus, to speak with him,

to proclaim his love to all.

 

Hail Mary, Full of Grace, The Lord is with thee. Blessed

art thou among women, 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.

 

Glory be, to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,

world without end. AMEN
