Mother's Day


For my lovely wife and mother of my children, for my own Mom, and all mothers today:

Remember, O Blessed Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence I fly unto thee O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To thee I come, before thee I stand sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.

Veni Sancte Spiritus, veni per Mariam
