A Special Prayer in Honor
of the Immaculate Heart of Mary
 Greetings!
Greetings! How are you today? Since August is a month dedicated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary I thought it would be appropriate to share Marian prayers over the course of the next several weeks.
 
For today, I came across a prayer that is written at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C. Fittingly, the prayer is inscribed in the Immaculate Heart of Mary Chapel there:

Father, You prepared the heart of the Virgin Mary to be a fitting home for Your Holy Spirit. By her prayers, may we become more worthy of Your glory. Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.

Peace with Christ, and Prayerful Support from Our Blessed Mother,
