Prayer in Honour of Mary , Mother of God

Hail Mary , Mother of God , venerable treasure of the whole universe , lamp that is never extinguished , crown of virginity support of the true faith , indestructible temple , dwelling of hm whom no place can contain , O Mother and Virgin ! Through you all the Gospels call blessed the one whom comes in the name of the Lord.
Hail , Mother of God . You enclosed under your heart the infinite God whom no space can contain . Through you the Most Holy Trinity is adored and glorified , the priceless cross is venerated throughout the universe. Through you the heavens rejoice and the angels and archangels are filled with gladness. Through you the demons are banished , and the temper fell from heaven . Through you the fallen human race is admitted to heaven.
Hail , Mother of God . Through you kings rule , and the only-begotten Son of God has become a star of light to those who were sitting in darkness and in the shadow of death.

Saint Cyril of Alexandria , Bishop and Doctor.

The God who provides

' As surely as the Lord you God lives , ' she replied ,
' I don't have any bread - only a handful of flour in a jar and
a little oil in a jug .........'
Elijah said to her , ' Don't be afraid......
For this is what the Lord the God of Israel says ;
" The jar of flour will not be used up and the jug of oil will not run dry
until the day the Lord gives rain on the land " ' .

1 Kings 17 : 12 , 13 , 14



Andrew , Simon Peter's brother spoke up ,
' Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish ,
but how far will they go among so many ? '
Jesus then took the loaves , gave thanks ,
and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted .
He did the same with the fish .
