Humility of Mary Day

Reflection

“Brothers and sisters: From the day we heard about you, we do not cease praying for you and asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of God’s will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding, to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, so as to be fully pleasing, in every good work bearing fruit and growing in the knowledge of God.” –Colossians 1:9-10

Prayer

God of all that is good,

We thank you today for the example and influence of the Sisters of the Humility of Mary. Through their innovative spirit and humble devotion to the people around them, their mission to change lives has flourished for over 170 years. As their ministry in health care extends through us, help us to be worthy of the calling before us by trusting in your wisdom and guidance. We ask for your continued blessings on the Sisters’ ministry and the personal intentions of each Sister. Under the guidance of Mary, your mother, we pray. Amen.
