O Mary, Mother of Jesus, I thank God, through you, for a safe journey here. Please help me to spend these days in prayer and penance in close union with you. Teach me to love God and my neighbour more and more. Help me to do what you would like me to do whilst I am here. Help me to pray as you helped Bernadette to pray. Obtain for me, and for those for whom I promised to pray, all the graces and favours which you know will be good for me.
Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for me.
St Bernadette, pray for me.
