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

Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam
For the greater glory of God

Reflection: Lord, I am not worthy to have You enter under my roof...

When Jesus entered Capernaum, a centurion approached Him and appealed to Him, saying, "Lord my servant is lying at home, paralyzed, suffering dreadfully." He said to him, "I will come and cure him." The centurion said in reply, "Lord, I am not worthy to have You enter under my roof; only say the word and my servant will be healed."  Matthew 8:5-8

The centurion had great trust in Jesus. He had hope and trust in Jesus. Jesus was amazed at his faith...

And Jesus said to the centurion, "You may go; as you have believed, let it be done for you." And at that very hour, his servant was healed.  Matthew 8:13

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. Proverbs 3:5

How can you have trust and faith like the centurion?

Surrender to the Lord
Die to self
Be open to the Holy Spirit
Call out to God in prayer
Avoid sin and temptations
Put God in the center of your life
Read and meditate on Scripture
Receive the Sacraments frequently
Spend time daily in silence with the Lord

Trust in the Lord and do good...Psalm 37:3
