That fervent devotion to the Eucharist will cause the Church to grow in numbers and holiness, we pray:
For our legislators and government leaders: that they will pursue justice, truth, and peace, we pray:
For those bearing burdens: that the Lord will build up strength within them and assist them in their need, we pray:
That families, through their life of prayer and love, become ever more clearly schools of love, we pray:
That every parishioner, fed by the real presence of Jesus in the Holy Eucharist, may be transformed into His likeness, we pray:
That God in his mercy will heal and comfort the sick and infirm, especially Rene Garana, Art Condes, Manny Guiterrez, Angelina Mary Klontz, and for those whose names are on our prayer chain and written in our prayer intention book, we pray:
That those who have died may share fully in the promise of the Resurrection, especially, Laura Everett, we pray:
Act of Spiritual Communion
My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love you above all things, and I desire to receive you into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive you Sacramentally, come at least
spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.
Anima Christi
Soul of Christ, sanctify me.
Body of Christ, save me.
Blood of Christ, inebriate me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me.
Passion of Christ, strengthen me.
O Good Jesus, hear me.
Within Thy wounds hide me.
Suffer me not to be separated from thee.
From the malignant enemy defend me.
In the hour of my death call me.
And bid me come unto Thee,
That with all Thy saints,
I may praise thee
Forever and ever.
Amen.
Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle,
be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him we humbly pray;
and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God,
cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
