A Prayer for Venezuela

 From Catholic News Agency. 

Our Lady of Coromoto is the Patroness of Venezuela. I pray she may intercede for this nation and its people. 

In this moment of uncertainty, we join in prayer for our brothers and sisters in Venezuela, and we entrust this beloved nation to its patroness, Our Lady of Coromoto:

Jesus Christ, our Lord,  

we come before You in this time of great need for our homeland.  

We feel both anxious and hopeful,  

and we ask for strength as a precious gift of Your Spirit.  

We long to be a people committed to respect for human dignity,  

to liberty, justice, and the pursuit of the common good.  

As children of God, grant us the grace to build fraternal coexistence,  

to love everyone without exclusion,  

to stand in solidarity with the poor,  

and to work for reconciliation and peace.  

Grant us the wisdom of dialogue and encounter,  

so that together we may build a civilization of love  

through genuine participation and fraternal solidarity.  

You call us together as one nation, and we say to You:  

Here we are, Lord, with our Mother,  

Mary of Coromoto, ready to continue the path we have begun  

and to bear witness to the faith of a people  

united in new hope.  

And so we all proclaim together: Venezuela!  

Walks and lives with Jesus Christ, Lord of history!  

Amen.

Remind our leaders—Democrats, Republicans, and all in positions of power—that it is not about personal agendas, party pride, or political gamesmanship. It is about the people they serve, the families affected, and the future being shaped by every decision they make. “If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.”—Mark 3:25 God, we ask You to tear down walls of pride and division in Washington. Replace them with wisdom, humility, and a spirit of cooperation. Remind our leaders that they are public servants, not rulers, and they are accountable first...
