It's hard to believe our month together is almost over! We've toured the internet and walked through Jesus' life while holding his mother's hand.  We've prayed for mothers of all stripes and I know I've had a few special intentions I've held close to Mary in a special way (I hope you have, too).

Today, we're ending our complete rosary in celebration of the launch of my new book, A Catholic Mother’s Companion to Pregnancy: Walking with Mary from Conception to Baptism, the first of the CatholicMom.com books.

Today, we close our rosary. (If you’re not familiar with how to pray the rosary, you can find great resources at Rosary Army.)

Hail, Holy Queen . . . 

For the Pope and the Pope's intentions, let us pray,

Our Father . . . 

Hail Mary . . . 

Glory Be . . .

O My Jesus . . .

+ In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Thanks so much for joining us in our prayers this month and for celebrating with us as we honor motherhood.
