Our permanent exhibit gives pilgrims space to reflect on Saint John Paul II's devotion to the Blessed Mother. |
Oh Blessed Virgin, Mother of God, Mother of Christ,
Mother of the Church, look upon us mercifully at this hour!
Virgo Fidelis, Faithful Virgin, pray for
us! Teach us to believe as you believed! Make our faith in God, in Christ, in
the Church, always be limpid, serene, courageous, strong and generous.
Mater Amabilis, Mother worthy of love! Mater
pulchrae dilectionis, Mother of fair love, pray for us! Teach us to love
God and our brothers, as you loved them: make our love for others always be
patient, kindly, respectful.
Causa nostrae laetitiae, Cause of
our joy, pray for us! Teach us to be able to grasp, in faith, the paradox of
Christian joy, which springs up and blooms from sorrow, renunciation, union
with your crucified Son: make our joy always be genuine and full, in order to
be able to communicate it to all!
Amen!
On this Memorial of the Presentation of
the Blessed Virgin Mary, we join St. John Paul II in asking our Mother to pray
for us, that we may be as faithful as she was throughout her entire life.
