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.
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.

Hebrews 13:17-18
"Obey your leaders and follow their orders.
They watch over your souls without resting,
since they must give to God an account of their service.
If you obey them, they will do their work gladly;
if not, they will do it with sadness, and that would be of no help to you.
They watch over your souls without resting,
since they must give to God an account of their service.
If you obey them, they will do their work gladly;
if not, they will do it with sadness, and that would be of no help to you.
Keep on praying for us.
We are sure we have a clear conscience,
because we want to do the right thing at all times."

Daily Intention
Holy Mary, you who are Queen of the Apostles,
I ask you to pray now for the successsors, the bishops.
Take into your hands whatever knots
lie in the soul and circumstances of my local bishop,
My bishop carries a most heavy burden, Holy Queen;
lend him your wisdom, grace, and holiness
as he seeks to shepherd his diocese and lead his flock
to build the kingdom of God.
Lastly, Mother, untie whatever knots of pride or disagreement I have with my bishop,
and lead me to submit to his authority.
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.
