Our Lady holding Jesus as He accepts flowers from the shepherd child

Welcome to our intercessory prayer ministry for families, babies, little ones and those who love them.

In our prayers for families, we pray for the sanctity of all life and for vocations to marriage, the priesthood and consecrated life, which are born and nurtured in families.

The
Prayer of Entrustment to Mary was prayed for this ministry at the icon of the Madonna Salus Populi Romani (Salvation of the Roman People, Our Lady of Good Health) in the Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore (Basilica of Mary Major) in Rome, Italy, in Nossa Senhora do Rosario da Fatima (Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary) in Fatima, Portugal, in Eglise du Sacre-Coeur (Sacred Heart Parish Church), the site of St. Bernadette's baptismal font, in Lourdes, France and at The National Shrine of The Divine Mercy in Stockbridge, Massachusetts at the Shrine of the Holy Innocents before Our Lady of Guadalupe and at Basilica Papale de San Pietro in Vaticano (St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City) at the Tomb of St. John Paul II in Rome, Italy and at the Basílica de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe (Basilica of the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe) in Mexico City, Mexico.

This ministry is consecrated to Jesus Christ, Wisdom Incarnate, through the hands of Mary and dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary. In our prayers to Mary, we honor and worship her Son Jesus. When He was on the Cross, He gave His Mother to John and she became our Mother as well. "Behold, your Mother." John 19:27

Reflection: Deliver us from evil...

Prayer to Our Blessed Mother Mary for assistance in the Spiritual Battle From a book of prayers, "The Lion Roars, Prayers for the Remnant" by Dave VanVickle.

"O Mary, conceived without sin! O Woman clothed with the Sun! Come now and intercede for us in this battle against evil. You who are despised and feared by the father of lies, help us powerfully. You whose beauty is so bright, so pure that devils tremble in fear, help us powerfully. You who strike at the head of the old serpent, the devil, help us powerfully. O Mary whose name is so sweet, come and cover us with your protective mantle and protect us in this battle with evil. O humble Woman, vanquish the evil one. O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee."

For our struggle is not with flesh and blood but with the principalities, with the powers, with the world rulers of this present darkness, with the evil spirits in the heavens.  Ephesians 6:12  

O Mary, Undoer of Knots, you are our most powerful intercessor.  We ask you to undo the knots of evil in our midst and protect our families. Take the ribbon of our lives, undo the knots and make the ribbon smooth.  O Mary, we trust in your tender mercy and maternal care and ask you to bring our prayers to the Father to deliver us from evil.

I will put enmities between you (satan) and the woman, and your seed and her seed; she shall crush your head, and you shall lie in wait for her heel.  Genesis 3:15

Not long ago, a little five year old was sharing with me something that a classmate did that upset her. I gave her a prayer card with a picture of Mary Undoer of Knots.  I told her to look at Mary and how she takes the knots of the ribbon and she makes the ribbon smooth.  This little one loves ribbons!  I told her that she could give Mary this problem with her classmate and Mary will help her.  Mary will undo the knots and make the ribbon smooth for her.  She loved it, smiled and held onto the prayer card.  Mary Undoer of Knots, will do the same for you.

Let us pray the Rosary daily and let the heel of our Mother crush the enemy.  Let us pray the Chaplet of Divine Mercy daily "in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world."  Let us fast and make little offerings and pray the Our Father daily for the undoing of evil in our world. We place our prayers and offerings in the hands of Mary Undoer of Knots.  She will entrust them to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.

O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.
