  • Prayer {from the Proper of Saints}
    V. O Lord, hear my prayer.
    R. And let my cry come unto thee.
    Let us pray
     Graciously hear us, God our Savior, that as we rejoice in the festival of blessed Martha, thy Virgin, so may we be nourished by the food of her heavenly teaching as to be enlightened by the fervor of her dedicated holiness.
    Through Jesus Christ, thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end.
    R. Amen.
    But one thing is necessary. Mary hath chosen the best part, which shall not be taken away from her.
    Luke 10:42

    That was directed to Mary Magdalene, was it not?  Nevertheless, we can all benefit from those words.  Thank you.
