Pause here for the grace you are asking.

O Mary, Queen of the Apostles, you who were present with the Apostles in prayer at Pentecost, intercede for us before your Son, that we may be filled with the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

You who nurtured the early Church with your prayers and presence, help us to be faithful disciples of your Son, steadfast in prayer and united in love.

Grant us the gift of faith like that of the Apostles, that we may boldly proclaim the Gospel to all nations, trusting in your intercession and guidance.

O Mary, Queen of the Apostles, we entrust our prayers and petitions to your loving care, knowing that you intercede for us before your Son.

May we follow your example in faith, hope, and love, and may we, like the Apostles, proclaim the Good News to all the world.

Amen.

Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Mary, Queen of the Apostles, pray for us.

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.
