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: "They all ate and were satisfied. "

In the sixth chapter of the Gospel of Mark, Jesus performed the miracle of multiplying the loaves and fishes. He took five loaves and two fishes, said the blessing, broke the loaves, divided the fishes and gave them to His disciples to give to the crowd of five thousand men.  "They all ate were satisfied." Mark 6:42

Recall a time you ate a delicious meal and your stomach was full and you were satisfied.

Every time you go to Mass, Jesus performs a miracle on the altar through the words of the priest who changes the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Jesus. When you receive the Eucharist, Jesus nourishes you with His Body and Blood and you are satisfied. Jesus promised:  "And behold, I am with you always, even until the end of the age." Matthew 28:20

Mary is the Mother of Jesus and the Mother of the Eucharist. Make some time today to sit in her presence. Share your joys and sorrows with her and ask her to help you

Jesus is always with Mary, His Mother.

Prayer to Mary, Mother of the Eucharist

 Hail Mary, sweet Mother of the Eucharist, with sorrow and much love, you have given us your Son Jesus while hanging from the Cross. We, weak creatures, anchor ourselves to you to be worthy sons of this great LOVE and SORROW. Help us to be humble and simple, help us to love all men, help us to live in grace always to be ready to welcome Jesus into our heart.

 O Mary, Mother of the Eucharist, we, by ourselves, will never be able to understand this great mystery of love. Gain for us the light of the Holy Spirit, because only in that moment we will be able to perceive even for just one instant, all the infinite love of your Jesus in giving Himself to us. Amen.

Receive the Eucharist often, daily, if possible. Jesus will fill you up and nourish your soul. You will eat and be satisfied!

Jesus in the Sacred Host, comes to each of us as He did to Saint John, the Beloved Disciple, from the Cross on Calvary, "Behold thy Mother." John 19:27
