These palm sized crosses feature the etched words:
Mary, Help me
The beautifully illustrated Holy Card reads:
Mary, Help Me - Dear Mary, I who am a mother, have you for my mother. Thank you! I really need you, Mary, as my Queen, my mother, my friend. For the energy and spirit to arise each morning with a joyful heart - My mother Mary help me. In the difficulties and setbacks of each day - Mary help me.
When I feel tired or depressed - Mary help me. When the outlook is bleak and there is no one to console or encourage me - Mary help me. When others speak angrily or loudly to me, and I feel like snapping back, that I would answer calmly and gently - Mary help me. When my plans don't work out, my efforts seem in vain, and I feel discouraged - Mary help me. When I try my best and others don't understand - Mary help me.
When worry and anxiety clutch at my heart and it is difficult to be at peace - dear Mother Mary help me! Dear God, grant that through Mary's intercession, all things in my life and my family will work out for the good. May I grow day by day to be more like her, My Mother, my Queen. In the name of your Son Jesus I pray. Amen.
