Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

It's official!

The rest of the list approved by Pope Benedict this morning is quite star-studded as well. The causes were advanced for Pius XII, Brother Andre (of Montreal), and Australia's first saint.
