Our Lady of the Ojibwe

 




Prayer to Our Lady of the Ojibwe


Lord God,

we acknowledge your infinite glory

and the abundance of your gifts.

Before the foundation of the world you appointed Christ

the beginning and the end of all things.


You chose the Blessed Virgin Mary

as the mother and companion of your Son,

the image and model of your Church,

the advocate of the Ojibwe People.


May God who sustains all life

strengthen our mothers;

may God the Protector of all life

guide those who stand in and serve as mothers,

especially our grandmothers and foster moms!


God of love,

your care reaches out to us

like the arms of a loving mother.

Hear us as we call upon you

to bring all our people into your loving embrace.


In her flesh Mary was your mother;

in her person, his disciple,

in her love, his servant!

We honor her

as the Mother of our Ojibwe people!
