Give the Gift of Hope to Prisoners
Our Lady of Mercy is the Patron Saint of Prisoners and
anyone who works with prisoners. She offers hope and
mercy to those who pray to her and give believers the
strength they need in times of adversity.
Praying to Our Lady of Mercy is the best way to give
hope to anyone who is in prison or a juvenile center.
Ask for the Blessed Virgin's intercession with Jesus,
asking Him to show His goodness and mercy on the imprisoned
and their families.
Our Lady of Mercy Medallion
Our Lady of Mercy jewelry is a physical reminder to
prisoners and their families that they do not have to
go it alone. The help of the Virgin
Mary is only a prayer away. Depicted on the Lady
of Mercy Medallion is the Virgin Mary with shackles
in her left hand. She is holding them up as a sign of
freedom from the bonds that hold all people in their
grip.
Even prisoners who have a long time to serve can gain
freedom from the inside. With the love of Jesus
and Mary, the prisoner's spirit will soar to the heavens
in the joy of love with Christ. An Our Lady of Mercy
medal offers the symbol of freedom from the pain and
sorrow that binds all humans to this life.
Our Lady of Mercy Prayer
Blessed Virgin Mary,
who can worthily repay you with praise
and thanks for having rescued a fallen world
by your generous consent!
Receive our gratitude,
and by your prayers obtain the pardon of our sins.
Take our prayers into the sanctuary of heaven
and enable them to make our peace with God.
Holy Mary, help the miserable,
strengthen the discouraged,
comfort the sorrowful,
pray for your people,
plead for the clergy,
intercede for all women consecrated to God.
May all who venerate you
feel now your help and protection.
Be ready to help us when we pray,
and bring back to us the answers to our prayers.
Make it your continual concern
to pray for the people of God,
for you were blessed by God
and were made worthy to bear the Redeemer of the world,
who lives and reigns forever. Amen.
