PRAYER DURING CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC

O clement, O loving, O sweet Mother Mary, We, your children of every nation, Turn to you in this pandemic. Our troubles are numerous; our fears are great. Grant that we might deposit them at your feet, Take refuge in your Immaculate Heart, and Obtain peace, healing, rescue, and timely help in all our needs. You are our Mother. Pray for us to your Son. Amen

If you cannot come to Mass, you can make a Spiritual Communion whenever and wherever you'd like, using the prayer given below.
My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all things and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there, and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
(composed by St. Alphonsus Liquori)
