To the Mother of Fatima on a New Day

At the edge of silence my soul opens to the light that is born.

Mother Mary, with a grateful heart I look to you and entrust to you this day that you give me.

I entrust my family to you; protect them with your tenderness.

Embrace all those who today carry invisible burdens and enlighten those who feel alone or lost.

Grant to those I will meet a gentle gaze and words of peace.

Make me docile and attentive, like the shepherd children of Fatima, ready to serve in love.

Always support the journey of your Church and the whole world.

Guide us toward your maternal consolation.

Keep those who read this prayer under your mantle, today and always.

Amen. 🌿
