Lord Jesus, you gave us Mary as a Mother. She shared in your Passion and 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, caregivers, and researchers, those of all people.
Our Lady of Lourdes, our sister and our mother, our confidante and our support in trial, we pray to you.
Our Father; 10 Hail Marys; Glory Be.
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. At Lourdes, she showed herself to Bernadette not as distant, but close.
