Loving God
I pray today for all people
who are dying.
Give to your loved ones
peace as they let go of
their earthly life.
Comfort them and give
your strength to them.
Help them when they are
afraid and bring them through
death to the risen life of Christ
where they will be happy with
God forever.
Mary, mother of Jesus and
our mother pray for all God’s
dying people and bring them
safely into life everlasting.
Venerable Mary Potter pray
for the dying and be close
to them at the hour of
their death.

Amen

Mother Mary Potter – Foundress of the Little Company of Mary (with Ecclesiastical approval November 1972)
Maternal Heart of Mary, more loving and suffering than the hearts of all mothers, implore God’s mercy for the dying, that sinners ere they die may be washed in the Precious Blood shed by the Son Jesus, Who made Himself their Brother. May God’s Spirit quicken their hearts by His love.
Jesus look with an eye of mercy upon all the infants born into the world today. Remember how You suffered and died on Calvary for them. Remember how Mary loves the souls for whom You shed Your Precious Blood. Bring to them the cleansing waters of baptism and save them.
Mother Mary, pray for thy children, Pray that God may take to Himself today souls now in His grace who tomorrow might sin.
O! Mother of Christians, Mother of mankind, since Jesus was born and died for all mankind, pray for all upon this earth that they may all indeed be thine by being Christ’s, that grace may be brought to all, that none may die without baptism, and that those who have lost the innocence given them in baptism may be cleansed by contrition and penance ere they die.  Mother, inspire thy children to imitate thee, to live a life of devotion to others, a life of love for God and man. May none in God’s Church stand idle all day, saying, “No man hath hired them;” but send them sweet Mother, into God’s vineyard, to work for the good Master Who has promised to those who work a reward so great.
