Our Lady of Knock, Queen of
Ireland, you gave hope to our people in a time of distress and comforted them in
sorrow. You have inspired countless pilgrims to pray with confidence to your
divine Son, remembering His promise: "Ask and you shall receive, Seek and you
shall find". Help me to remember that we are all pilgrims on the road to heaven.
Fill me with love and concern for my brothers and sisters in Christ, especially
those who live with me. Comfort me when I am sick or lonely or depressed. Teach
me how to take part ever more reverently in the holy Mass. Pray for me now, and
at the hour of my death.
Amen.
