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!
