PRAYER
Hail, Holy Mother, Virgin Daughter of Zion, How deeply must your mother's heart suffer for this bloodshed! The child you embrace has a name that is dear to the people of the biblical region: "Jesus," which means "God saves," ...In the face of the newborn Messiah, we recognize the face of all you children, who suffer from being despised and exploited. We recognize especially the faces of your children, to whatever race, nation or culture they may belong. For them, O Mary, for their future, we ask you to move hearts hardened by hatred so that they may open to love and so that revenge may finally give way to forgiveness
