Hail Mary . . .
Heavenly Father, we come to you trusting in your mercy. May we be heard through the merits of your son, our Savior Jesus Christ, and through the intercession of the blessed Virgin Mary and the Virgin Martyr St. Odilia. Give us what is best for now and forever.  We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen
Father in Heaven, you have shown us your kindness by giving Saint Odilia to us as the protectress of the order of the Holy Cross and patroness of the blind and afflicted. We humbly ask to be protected, through her intercession, from the darkness of ignorance and sin and to be cured of blindness and other sickness.
Through Him who is the source of all healing and life, Jesus Christ. Our Lord and Savior.  Amen.
