Lord Jesus - you are the beloved son of the Father.

2. That we respect human life from the moment of conception to the moment of natural death. 

3. That we may grow in our love and devotion to Mary. 

4. That our Church leaders may lead us to be missionary in spirit. 

5. For the sick and the afflicted. For healing in body, mind, and spirit. 

6. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today. We unite our prayers with the prayers of the angels and the saints.  We pray with our guardian angels.
