Before you were born, a new world was being discovered for Christians and Incans. You were born from these cultures and this new world was being prepared for you. Pray that I may always avoid prejudice, hatred, and fear toward people of other races, religions, or way of life.

Patroness of Peru and the Americas, pray for the people of our land. Beg the Lord to watch over us. May the Lord of all nations bless us and make us one. I ask this through Jesus Christ, in union with the Father and the Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever.............. Amen.
