A Million Memorares for Hope

We are excited to launch A Million Memorares for Hope, an inspiring initiative aimed at deepening our diocese’s prayer life and fostering a spirit of hope. Parishes will receive special postcards designed for this challenge, where individuals can commit to praying one hundred Memorare prayers per card.

Participants will have the opportunity to write their personal intentions and share what gives them hope on these postcards. Once completed, these cards can be mailed directly to the chancery. Each time we receive a set of cards, Bishop Gerald Vincke will take the time to pray over them, lifting up the intentions of those who have participated.

Our goal is to have a million Memorare prayers said, creating a powerful wave of prayer and hope throughout our community. We invite everyone to join us in this meaningful journey, as we collectively seek grace and strength through the intercession of Our Lady. Together, let’s spread hope and make a profound impact through our prayers! We invite you to take a postcard, pray 100 Memorares, and return it to the diocese as a testament to your commitment and faith.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known, that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession, was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
