Readings

A Reading from the letter of St. Paul to the Galatians.
When the appointed time came, God sent his son, born of a woman, born a subject of the Law, to redeem the subjects of the law and to enable us to be adopted as his children. The proof that you are his children is that God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts: the Spirit that cries, “Abba, Father”, and it is that which makes you a child. You are not a slave anymore. And if God has made you his child, then he has made you his heir.
This is the word of the Lord.

Prayers for the Day

Opening Prayer:
 Lord, you chose Mary to be the Mother of your Son,
And become Our Mother of Perpetual Help.
May her example inspire us to follow you in faith and trust,
We ask this through Christ our Lord
but also by our way of living.
We ask this through Christ Our Lord.

Prayer over the Gifts:
Lord, accept the prayers and gifts we offer you,
as we honour Mary, the Mother of God.
May they please you, and bring us your forgiveness and help.
Grant this through Christ Our Lord.

Concluding Prayer:
Lord, may we who honour Mary, the Mother of Perpetual Help,
rejoice in the abundance of your grace.
By the help of her prayers, may we experience your unfailing help.
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.
