May we love and respect each other as you have loved and respected each one of us. May we treat those we meet today with love and kindness. For every blessing you have bestowed upon my life, I give thanks. May my heart always be aware of your gifts, and may I always remember to share them.
Open our eyes so that we can see your beloved Son reflected in the faces of the poor and the marginalized. Help us to always choose to do what is right, and to always seek to help those who cannot help themselves. Thank you for this new day, this new week, this new month. Thank you for blessing us with life; for everything that we are and we have, we thank you.
Please bless our families, our friends and relatives with everything that we need in our spiritual journey. We pray, especially, for your protection: keep us safe in your love and mercy. May your face shine upon us and be gracious to us, may you turn your face towards us and give us peace.
Please illuminate the path before me, helping me to navigate each step with wisdom and grace. May I find courage in uncertainty and trust in your divine plan.
Surround me with your love and protect me from obstacles that may arise. Let my heart be open to the lessons learned along the way, and may I walk this path with faith and purpose. We ask you to please be the one to guide our plans and actions today. Bless those who may come to visit The Grotto, especially those who will participate at the Mass in honor of St. Grant integral healing to those who are still suffering from all kinds of illnesses or diseases.
