Magnificat : the daily prayer for teams members
My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord
my spirit rejoices in God my savior.
For he has looked upon his handmaid's lowliness;
behold, from now on will all ages call me blessed.
The Mighty One has done great things for me,
and holy is his name.
His mercy is from age to age to those who fear him.
He has shown might with his arm,
dispersed the arrogant of mind and heart.
He has thrown down the rulers from their thrones
but lifted up the lowly.
The hungry he has filled with good things;
the rich he has sent away empty.
He has helped Israel his servant,
remembering his mercy,
according to his promise to our fathers,
to Abraham and to his descendants ever.
The Teams place themselves under the patronage of Our Lady.
 In so doing, they emphasise their will to serve her and affirm that there is no better guide to God than the Mother of God.(Charter)
"All here present, in our own names and in the name of all members of the Teams of Our Lady, give to you in loving homage and full confidence, without reserve or condition, our Movement and all the households who form it. It belongs to you, and is entirely at your disposal for the glory of your Son. We accept in advance anything you may ask or do.
After hearing the word of Jesus « This is your mother » Saint John took you into his home. All the homes of all your Teams are open to you, Mary: stay with us. Teach us to know your Son. Instruct us how to love and imitate Him. Watch over our children, and kindle among them plentiful vocations, both sacerdotal and religious. May your prayers obtain for our families, as they did for the Apostles in the Upper Room, the fullness of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. So that, as it was for the apostles, so for us: we will be impelled to tell out the magnalia Dei, the marvels of God, and very specially the marvels of the sacrament of marriage, to those who do not know them."
