Mother’s Intercession Prayer at the Tomb of Mary

Rest your request in the arms that first cradled Christ.

Carved deep into the rock at the foot of the Mount of Olives lies the tranquil Tomb of the Virgin Mary. Here, according to ancient tradition, the Mother of Jesus was laid to rest before being assumed to glory. Pilgrims have long sought her tender intercession in this quiet grotto, trusting that the one who said “My soul magnifies the Lord” (Luke 1:46‑47) still lifts every plea to her Son with a mother’s unstoppable love.

“Hail, favored one; the Lord is with you.” — Luke 1:28
“Do whatever He tells you.” — John 2:5
“All joined constantly in prayer … with Mary the mother of Jesus.” — Acts 1:14
