A Prayer for Mary MacKillop

Loving God,

We honor the life and legacy of Saint Mary MacKillop, a woman of deep faith and unwavering commitment to serving others. As we celebrate her feast day, we ask for her intercession and guidance in our daily lives.

Mary MacKillop, you showed us the power of compassion, resilience, and dedication. You faced challenges with courage and always trusted in God's providence. Help us to follow your example, to see Christ in every person we meet, and to serve with a generous heart.

May we be inspired by your spirit of humility and love, and may we strive to create a community where everyone is valued and supported. Grant us the strength to persevere in our work, the wisdom to make just decisions, and the grace to act with kindness and mercy.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Amen.
