Feast Day of Our Lady of Guadalupe is December 12th
Prayer to Our Lady of Guadalupe
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. Amen.
Blessing of a Christmas Tree
Lord God,
Let your blessing come upon us
as we illuminate this tree.
May the light and cheer it gives
be a sign of the joy that fills our hearts.
May all who delight in this tree
come to the knowledge and joy of salvation.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
