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.

Please pray that she has a good experience and returns home safely. My husband is so worried about sending her off with teens and adults he does not know. (One of my son's good friends will be there, which is reassuring; he's one of my former co-op students.) She is hoping for a good retreat; we've had a lot of leadership changes in our parish recently and our youth ministry staff is struggling to keep up with all the changes.

Please say an extra prayer for the students on the retreat. Some of them have not had the benefit of good catechesis; I'm sure they would appreciate your prayers as they set schedules and social media aside and try to focus on God's plan for them.

Thank you!

Praying for your daughter's retreat experience to be a safe and spiritually strengthening one. Praying for those going on retreat, and for those in charge of it.

Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your divine love!
