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 for my mother, and my family over the next couple of weeks. My mom's health has declined rapidly in the last year. She now walks with a walker, falls frequently, and is becoming forgetful. She will be staying with us for the next 3-4 weeks and I'm nervous about how things will go with all my kids. Our house is a big chaotic with 5 rowdy boys and she's used to living alone. It's hard to see my mom this way. I guess I need prayers for emotional strength too!

Praying, Becky. Those kinds of changes are so hard to see in our parents. I will pray that things go smoothly during the visit.

Praying, Becky, that you might be able to look past the stress to the joy of having all those loved ones in one place for the holiday. Praying for your mother as she lives through the changes happening to her.

Praying, Becky. It is stressful, but it will be good for your children to be helping her and comforting her.

Praying that you will be blessed to see your "rowdy boys" learning gentleness and consideration around their grandma and that grandma will thoroughly enjoy the antics.
