- That our mothers and grandmothers as they celebrate Mothers Day and for all women who nurture us, will enjoy dignity, respect and love, we pray.
- For the people of Saipan, so that through the prayers of San Isidro, the patron of the Island, they will serve the Lord in humility and justice, we pray.
- For the sick, especially those who are dying, that the Lord of mercy will give them speedy recovery and patience in their suffering, we pray.
- That all our dead may ascend to glory with Christ our priest and king, we pray.
