Prayer to Mary, Help of Christians # 2

Most Holy and Immaculate Virgin,

Help of the Christians,

we place ourselves under your motherly protection.

Throughout the Church's history

you have helped Christians in times of trial,

temptation and danger.

Time and time again,

you have proven to be the Refuge of sinners,

the Hope of the hopeless,

the Consoler of the afflicted,

and the Comforter of the Dying.

We promise to be faithful disciples of Jesus Christ, your Son, to proclaim His Good News of God's love for all people,

and to work for peace and justice in our world.

With faith in your intercession,

we pray for the Church,

for our family and friends,

for the poor and abandoned,

and all the dying.

Grant, O Mary, Help of Christians,

the graces of which we stand in need.

(State your intention(s) here.)

May we serve Jesus with fidelity and love until death.

Help us and our loved ones

to attain the boundless joy of being forever

with our Father in heaven.

Amen.
