Sep 12, Feast of the Holy Name of Mary

Grant, we pray, almighty God, to look upon the lowliness of your servants who live and work under the name of Mary; do great things through us, filling us with the spirit of our Mother so that, not seeking our own interests but those of Christ alone, we may lead our fellow men and women to the light of the Gospel.
We make this prayer through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.

Solemnity of St Mary of the Cross

O God, source of all goodness, who have shown us in Saint Mary a woman of faith
living by the power of the Cross, teach us, we pray,
by her example to live the gospel in changing times
and to respect and defend the human dignity of all in our land.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, God forever and ever. Amen.
