Andronicus Icon of the Mother of God:
Consoler of Mothers
Litany by the Holy New Martyr Father Jerzy Popieluszko
After Each invocation we say "Pray for Us"
Mother of those who place their hope in Solidarity,
Mother of those who are deceived,
Mother of those who are betrayed,
Mother of those who are arrested in the night,
Mother of those who are imprisoned,
Mother of those who suffer from the cold,
Mother of those who have been freightened,
Mother of those who were subjected to interrogations,
Mother of those who have been condemned,
Mother of those who speak the truth,
Mother of those who cannot be corrupted,
Mother of those who resist,
Mother of orphans,
Mother of those who were beaten on the day of your feast,
Mother of those who have been molested because they wore your image,
Mother of those who are forced to sign declarations contrary to their consciences,
Mother of mothers who weep,
Mother of fatehrs who have been so deeply saddened,
Mother of suffering Poland,
Mother of always faithful Poland,
we beg you, O Mother in whom resides the hope of millions of people,
Grant to us to live in liberty and in truth, in fidelity to you and to your Son.
Amen
to Elizabeth McAlister, Philip Berrigan
, and their children Frida, Jerry and Katie.
