This celebration encourages us to turn to Mary Our loving mother in order to experience her maternal intercession and assistance in our daily lives.
We also pray in a special way for the church in Africa through the intercession of Our Lady.
A Prayer in Honour of Our Lady Mother of Africa
Holy Lord,
as we honour the glorious memory of the Virgin Mary, Mother of Africa, we ask that by the help of her prayers we too may come to share the fullness of your grace and live in harmony and peace as one family. Amen
