Prayer for Beatification or Canonization or intercession

          Merciful Father, You blessed Maria Esperanza with an abundance of spiritual gifts for the consolation of your people.  She served You as wife, mother, and missionary to promote the unity of the family and the reconciliation of all peoples.  You enable her to be the central figure in the manifestations of the Virgin Mary, under the title of Reconciler of all Peoples and Nations, in Betania.  Grant us the grace to follow her example of humility, hope, and unconditional love.  

          Through the intercession of your servant, Maria Esperanza, we pray for the healing and reconciliation of our families, and for the fraternal unity of the entire human family.

          Especially, we beseech You to grant us the favors we now request (mention your intentions here) through the merits and prayers of your servant.  Likewise, we humbly implore that she be inscribed in the Church's catalogue of saints, as a universal model of the beatitudes.

          We pray all this according to your holy will, cherished by your servant until the end, through Jesus Christ, your Son, Our Lord.  

          Amen.

With the ecclesiastial approval of Bishop Paul G. Bootkoski of Metuchen, New Jersey, December 4, 2009
