Lord Jesus, you gave us Mary as Mother. She shared in your Passion and your Resurrection. Here, in Lourdes, she showed herself to Bernadette, saddened by our sins but radiant with your light.
Through her, we entrust to you our joys, our sorrows, our hopes, those of the sick, the caregivers, and the researchers, those of all people.
Our Lady of Lourdes, our sister and our mother, our confidante and our support in times of trial, we pray to you.
Our Father, who art in heaven; 10 Hail Mary, full of grace; Glory be to the Father.
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee!
In this second moment of prayer, we turn to Mary as a compassionate Mother. In Lourdes, she showed herself to Bernadette not as distant, but as near.
