Election Day Prayers

Prayers for Election Day


Please join us in praying each hour throughout this election day.

Jesus, you said,
"Ask and you shall receive, Seek and you shall find,
Knock and it shall be opened to you,"
Through the intercession of Mary, your mother,
We knock, we seek, we ask:
Have mercy on those who vote only according to opinion.
Bless those who vote based on a well-formed conscience.



Jesus, you said,
"All that you ask of the Father in my name, He will grant you,"
Through the intercession of Mary your mother,
We humbly and urgently ask the Father in your name:
May the gift of human life from conception to natural death,
and may the beauty of the sacrament of holy matrimony
be given respect, dignity, and protection in our nation.



Jesus, you said,
"Heaven and earth shall pass away,
But My Word shall not pass away,"
Through the intercession of Mary, your mother,
May the candidate most likely to help carry out your will
be elected today.

Dear God give our new president an ever-growing desire
to know you, to serve you, and to love you.
May you be glorified today.
Amen.

Do not be anxious! Be at peace and trust in God.
