Prayer at the Tucson Chapel
We place before our all-merciful God the needs of all people, of all places, of all times.
As we chant the Liturgy of the Hours, celebrate Eucharist, carry out our daily labors and spend time in personal prayer and adoration, we are mindful of the needs of all who ask our prayer. As you seek God's help, we are united with you in prayer and concern, trusting that God will answer.
Our foundress, Mother Mary Anselma said, "I trust firmly that our Lord will do all." With that same faith, we entrust your needs to our all-merciful God.
