A PRAYER
Our Lady of Guadalupe,
O dark Madonna of the Americas,
Come again to bring us
the roses of compassion, justice, and peace.
In the midst of our winter,
bestow your love on all those marginalized in these lands,
and give us your gift to see dignity
in the least of those among us.
Bless all who suffer from injustice.
Shelter them in the warmth of your love
and safeguard them from evil that rages around them.
Turn our eyes and hearts to their needs
and give us courage to act for their good.
We ask this, relying on your compassion and confident of your love.
Amen
(Prayer from Education for Justice)
