April Family of Parishes Prayer
The Regina Coeli - an Easter Season Prayer.
Queen of Heaven, rejoice, alleluia.
The Son whom you merited to bear, alleluia.
Has risen, as he said, alleluia.
Pray for us to God, alleluia.
V. Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary, alleluia.
R. For the Lord has truly risen, alleluia.
Suggestion for the Universal Prayer:
- For a growing appreciation of Mary as Mother of the Church: that the witness of Mary's faithfulness to God will inspire greater discipleship in all Christians. We pray to the Lord.
- For our nation: that as the dangers and challenges around us mount, our response in word and action will show that, like Mary, " in God we trust". We pray to the Lord.
Possible Action Steps:
- Choose a time to pray the "Regina Coeli" each day during the Easter Season.
- Read the Easter passages in the Bible: Matthew 27:62-28:20; Mark 15:42- 16:20; Luke 23:50- 24:53; John 19:38-21:25; Acts 1:1-3:26.
- Make a special gift to a Catholic organization working for peace.
