Chaplain’s Corner – Prayer for May 12

The month of May is traditionally dedicated to Mary, Mother of God. And so, in the words of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, we pray:

Holy Mary, Mother of God,
you have given the world its true light,
Jesus, your Son – the Son of God.
You abandoned yourself completely
to God’s call
and thus became a wellspring
of the goodness which flows forth from him.
Show us Jesus. Lead us to him.
Teach us to know and love him,
so that we too can become
capable of true love
and be fountains of living water
in the midst of a thirsting world.
