Prayer to the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary #2

Father, the image of the Virgin is found in the Church.

Mary had a faith that Your Spirit prepared

and a love that never knew sin,

for You kept her sinless

from the first moment of her conception.

Trace in our actions the lines of her love,

in our hearts her readiness of faith.

Prepare once again a world for Your Son

Who lives and reigns with You

and the Holy Spirit, one God,

for ever and ever.

Amen.
