1. Make the sign of the cross.
2. Say the Act of Contrition. Ask pardon for your sins and make a firm promise not to commit them again.
"Oh my God I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee. I detest all my sins because I dread the loss of Heaven and the pains of Hell. But most of all, because I offended Thee, oh my God, who are all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace, to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen"
3. Say the first 3 decades of the Rosary.
4. Make the meditation of the day:
"Meditating Mother, Queen of heaven, in whose hands the treasures of the King are found, turn your merciful eyes upon our Holy Priests today. We entrust into your holy hands this knot in their lives...and all the rancor and resentment it has caused in them. We ask Your forgiveness, God the Father, for our sin. Help us now to forgive all the persons who consciously or unconsciously provoked this knot. Give them, also, the grace to forgive themselves for having provoked this knot. Only in this way can You undo it. Before You, dearest Mother, and in the name of Your Son Jesus, my Savior, who has suffered so many offenses, having been granted forgiveness, we pray they forgive these persons...and themselves, forever. Thank you, Mary, Undoer of Knots for undoing the knot of rancor in their heart and the knot which we now present to you. Amen.
Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for us.
Turn to Mary, you who desire grace."
5. Say the last 2 decades of the rosary
6. Finish with the Prayer to Our Lady the Undoer of Knots:"Virgin Mary, Mother of fair love, Mother who never refuses to come to the aid of a child in need, Mother whose hands never cease to serve your beloved children because they are moved by the divine love and immense mercy that exists in your heart, cast your compassionate eyes upon your holy priests and see the snarl of knots that exist in their lives. You know very well how desperate they are, their pain and how they are bound by these knots.

Mary, Mother to whom God entrusted the undoing of the knots in the lives of his children, we entrust into your hands the ribbon of their lives. No one, not even the Evil One himself, can take it away from your precious care. In your hands there is no knot that cannot be undone.
Powerful Mother, by your grace and intercessory power with Your Son and Our Liberator, Jesus, take into your hands today this knot...we beg you to undo it for the glory of God, once for all, You are their hope.
O my Lady, you are the only consolation God gives them, the fortification of their feeble strength, the enrichment of their destitution and with Christ the freedom from their chains.
Hear our plea for our Holy Priests whom we love so much because they are Christ on earth. Keep them, guide them, protect them, o safe refuge!
Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for them!
