Today Is The Feast Of The Holy Martyrs Of England And Wales:

 
 PRAYER FOR CONVERSION OF ENGLAND:
O BLESSED VIRGIN MARY,
Mother of God and our most gentle Queen and Mother,
look down in mercy upon England thy "Dowry"
and upon us all who greatly hope and trust in thee.
By thee it was that Jesus our Saviour and our hope was given unto the world;
and He has given thee to us that we might hope still more.
Plead for us thy children,
whom thou didst receive and accept at the foot of the Cross,
O sorrowful Mother.
Intercede for our separated brethren,
that with us in the one true fold
they may be united to the supreme Shepherd, the Vicar of thy Son.
Pray for us all, dear Mother,
that by faith fruitful in good works
we may all deserve to see and praise God,
together with thee, in our heavenly home. Amen.


 
  Shrine Prayer

My soul glorifies the Lord,
               Henceforth all ages will call me Blessed.
Holy His name.
Behold the handmaid of the Lord.
Be it done unto me according to your word.

Father, Your Son Jesus born of the Virgin Mary by the power of the Holy Spirit is the Light of the world. May the same Spirit lead us to imitate Mary’s faith love and humility, that, guided by her example, we may follow the light of her Son on our Journey through life and come at last to see you as you are, and praise you in the everlasting kingdom of heaven.
Amen

Holy Mary Mother of God, you offer your Son for our adoration
May we too treasure His word in our hearts and help bring His light to the world.
Our Lady of Cardigan         Pray for Wales
