Dear Jesus,
Through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I offer you my prayers, works, joys and sufferings of this day in union with
the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world. I offer them for the intentions of your Sacred Heart, the salvation
of souls, reparation for sins, and the reunion of all Christians. I offer them for the intentions of our Bishops and all
apostles of prayer, and in particular the intentions of Our Holy Father.  Amen

Let us pray that initiatives which defend and uphold the role of the family may be promoted within society; and that Mary, Queen of the World and Star of Evangelization, may accompany all missionaries in proclaiming her Son, Jesus.  Amen.

Dear Lord,
Teach us to treat our youth in the manner of your vision for them. Help them to grow in grace and wisdom so that they may know that true success is a matter of living with You.   Develop fruitfulness in their lives, Lord, so that they may share in the fruits of the spirit - love, joy, peace, patience, meekness, gentleness, faithfulness, goodness and self control. We ask this in thy Holy Name. Amen.

Let us pray, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, that Our Lord God will heal our country, protect our military troops, look after all families, find meaningful work for our citizens, bring wisdom to our country’s leaders, provide food for all the world’s hungry and restore peace and goodwill to our world.

Lord, source of eternal life and truth, provide to Your shepherd, Pope Benedict XVI, continued courage and right judgement, continued knowledge and love. As successor to the apostle Peter and vicar of Christ, may he build Your church into a sacrament of unity, love, and peace for all the world. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
