Gospel, Saint, prayer of May 31st

Today's Gospel
From the Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Luke 1,39-56.
In those days, Mary set off for the mountain and hurriedly reached a city of Judah.
Entering the house of Zechariah, she greeted Elizabeth.
As soon as Elizabeth heard Maria's greeting, the baby jumped in her womb. Elizabeth was full of the Holy Spirit
and exclaimed in a loud voice: "Blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb!
To what should the mother of my Lord come to me?
Behold, as soon as the voice of your greeting reached my ears, the child exulted with joy in my womb.
And blessed is she who believed in the fulfillment of the words of the Lord ».
Then Mary said: «My soul magnifies the Lord
and my spirit rejoices in God, my savior,
because he looked at the humility of his servant.
From now on all generations will call me blessed.
The Almighty has done great things for me
and Santo is his name:
from generation to generation
his mercy extends to those who fear him.
He explained the power of his arm, he dispersed the proud in the thoughts of their heart;
he overthrew the mighty from the thrones, he raised the humble;
He has filled the hungry with good things,
he sent the rich away empty.
He has helped his servant Israel,
remembering his mercy,
as he promised our fathers,
to Abraham and his descendants forever. "
Maria stayed with her for about three months, then returned to her home.

Deh! Lord grant your servants the gift of heavenly grace:

Visitation brings them peace increase.
