Remember, Our Lady of LaSalette, true mother of

Sorrows, the tears you shed for us on Calvary. Remember also the care you have taken to keep

us faithful to Christ, your Son. Having done so much for

your children, you will not now abandon us. Comforted by this consoling thought, we come to

you pleading, despite our infidelities and ingratitude.

Virgin of Reconciliation, do not reject our prayers, but intercede for us, obtain for us the

grace to love Jesus above all else. May we console you by living a holy life and so come to share the eternal life Christ

gained by His cross. Amen.

Pray for Peace We keep in prayer our loved ones who serve or have served in military

forces and our first responders as well as their families. Cal the office to have your name or your loved one’s name added to
