Lourdes Prayer
O Mary, Mother of Jesus,
I thank God, through you, for a safe and happy journey here.
Please help me to spend these few days in prayer and penance in close union with you.
Teach me to love God and my neighbour more and more.
Help me to do what you would like me to do whilst I am here.
Help me to pray as you helped Bernadette to pray.
Obtain for me, and for those for whom I have promised to pray,
all those graces and favours which you know will be for our good.
Our Lady of Lourdes,
pray for us.
Saint Bernadette,
pray for us.
Amen.
Our Task, as pilgrims to Lourdes
