Prayer for All Mothers
O almighty and eternal God, Lord of both the living and the
dead, Your tender mercy embraces all men foreknown to be Yours by faith and a
good life. Through the intercession of the Most Blessed Virgin Maryour Mother,
and of all the saints, grant Your merciful pardon to all mothers for whom we
pray, whether they still are living in this world or have departed from this flesh
into the world to come. Especially, dear Lord, grant the requests I now make of
You for my own beloved mother.
