Prayer to the Mother of our Lord for all mothers
Dear Mary, on this day when we honor all mothers, we turn to you. We thank our Lord, whom you serve, for the great gift of motherhood. We place our trust in you: never has it been known that anyone who sought your intercession was left unaided by grace. Dear Mother, thank you for your ‘Yes’ to the invitation of the angel which brought Heaven to earth and changed human history. You opened yourself to God’s word and the Word, Jesus Christ, was made flesh and dwelt among us. Dear Mother, intercede for all of our mothers. Ask your Divine Son to give them the grace of surrendered love so that they can join with you in giving their own ‘Fiat’. May they daily find strength to say yes to the call to give themselves in sacrificial love- the very heart of the vocation of motherhood. May their love and witness be a source of great inspiration for all who are called to follow your Son. On this Mothers day, Mother of the Word Incarnate, pray for us who have recourse to you! Amen.
