Preparation Prayer                                             

O Blessed Mother, who in submission to God,

 lived a life of humility and service, visit me with your grace.

Through your intercession, instill in my heart

a love for all members of the human family,

Especially those whom I have the most trouble loving 

and those whom I have the most trouble serving.

Pray with me now, beautiful intercessor, and with your grace,

help me to untie the knots that bind your children on Earth.

Through prayer and service to others, 

May I live according to your example 

and be brought ever closer to your Son, Jesus.

Third Day

Praying for your pastor


Fr. Jacobi

Hebrews 5:1-2, 4

"Every high priest is chosen from his fellow-men and appointed to serve God on their behalf, to offer sacrifices and offerings for sins.  Since he himself is weak in many ways, he is able to be gentle with those who are ignorant and make mistakes. …no one chooses fro himself the honor of being a high priest.  it is only by God's call that a man is made a high priest~just as Aaron was."

Daily Intention

Mary, Mother of Jesus and Mother of the Church, 

rain down your love and grace upon my parish pastor.

Together with Saint John Vianney, untie the knots in 

my pastor's life, and grow him in holiness, strengthen 

his prayer times, and lead him ever closer to your Son.

He carries a heavy burden, dear Mother; pray that he does 

not grow weary nor lose heart as he serves our parish.

Lastly, Mother, let your love for the priesthood shine

into my heart, exposing whatever hidden resentment,

antagonism, or grudges I may hold toward my pastor.

Help me to pray for him always.

Our Father
Hail Mary
Glory Be   

Concluding Prayer

Powerful Mother who unties our knots,

hear these prayers and the prayers of all the faithful.

Intercede for my brothers and sisters, and with your influence,

loose the entanglements and knots which hold them captive.

  

Forgive the human race for its unbelief 

and lead us all to faith in your Son, Jesus Christ the Lord.

Last of all, most Blessed Virgin, pray for me,

who is most in need of your grace and mercy.

Untie the knots in my own heart and in my own life, 

and free me to love as Christ loves.

Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for us.
