Morning Prayer

In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ I will begin this day.

I thank you, Lord, for having preserved me during the night. I will do my best to make all I do today pleasing to You and in accordance with Your will. My dear mother Mary, watch over me this day. My Guardian Angel, take care of me. St. Joseph and all you saints of God, pray for me.

O Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I offer You my prayers, works, joys and sufferings of this day for all the intentions of Your Sacred Heart, in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world, in reparation for my sins, for the intentions of all my relatives and friends, and in particular for the intentions of the Holy Father. Amen.

Prayer to Saint Anne

Saint Anne

Prayer to St. Anne:
St. Anne, pray for God to bless my family. My family is the heart of my life. It is my little Church. St. Anne, guard the members of my family against all physical and spiritual danger. You lived in the presence of your husband, St. Joachim, and your little daughter, Mary. Later, you welcomed your son-in-law, St. Joseph, and above all your beloved Grandson, Jesus, our Savior. May your family inspire all of our families. May we remain united in a deep mutual love forever. If my family is broken by separation or divorce, remain for us the Saint of tenderness and unity, which leads all souls to God. St. Anne, you were a spouse, a mother, and a grandmother; bless all the members of my family. Keep us faithful to the Lord and to each other. May we also remain attentive to the needs of other families. Good St. Anne, protect all families. Amen.

We go for Him.

calm

Even if you’re tired and don’t feel like going to Mass, just go. It will do your soul some good. God is waiting for you, and loves you immensely. Just get up and go. And if the music isn’t great, or the homily isn’t as exciting as you were hoping, don’t complain. Offer it all up, pray for your priests and our Church, and thank God for the many blessings in your life. Remember, we go to worship God. We go for Him

St. Joseph’s Novena – Day 4

St. Joseph Novena – Day 4

(Note: This prayer was found in the 50th year of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Sometime during the 16th century, it was sent by the Pope to Emperor Charles when he was going into battle. It is said that whoever shall read this prayer or take it with them, shall never die a sudden death or be drowned, nor shall poison take effect on them; neither shall they fall into the hands of the enemy, or shall be burned in any fire or shall be overpowered in battle.)

Say this prayer for nine days for anything you may desire. Then let go and let God. Trust that whatever is the outcome of your novena is truly what is best for you in accordance with the will of God.)

O Saint Joseph, whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt before the throne of God, I place in you all my interests and desires.

O Saint Joseph, assist me by your powerful intercession and obtain for me from your Divine Son all spiritual blessings through Jesus Christ, Our Lord; so that having engaged here below your heavenly power, I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of Fathers.

O Saint Joseph, I never weary contemplating you and Jesus asleep in your arms; I dare not approach while He reposes near your heart. Press Him in my name and kiss His fine head for me, and ask Him to return the Kiss when I draw my dying breath. Amen

O Saint Joseph, hear my prayers and obtain my petitions. O Saint Joseph, pray for me. (Mention your intention)
