Mary for May - 9

"The mother of the sons of Zebedee came to [Jesus] . . . and worshiping him, asked for a favor. He said to her, 'What is your wish?'" 
-Mt 20:20-21

Prayer to Mary: O most powerful Advocate, “help the helpless, strengthen the fearful, comfort the sorrowful, pray for the people, plead for the clergy, intercede for all women consecrated to God, and assist all those devoted to you.”
