I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth;
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son Our Lord,
Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended into Hell; the third day He rose again from the dead;
He ascended into Heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father almighty;
from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body and life everlasting.
Amen.
O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended You and I detest all my sins, because I dread the loss of heaven and the pains of hell, but most of all because they offend you, my God, who are all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of your grace, to confess my sins, to do penance and to amend my life.
Soul of Christ, make me holy. Body of Christ, save me. Blood of Christ, fill me with love. Water from Christ's side, wash me. Passion of Christ, strengthen me. Good Jesus, hear me. Within your wounds, hide me. Never let me be parted from you. From the evil enemy, protect me. At the hour of my death, call me. And tell me to come to you. That with your saints I may praise you. Through all eternity. Amen.
O Lord God, your Son Jesus Christ suffered and died for us. In his resurrection he restores life and peace in all creation. Comfort, we pray, all victims of intolerance and those oppressed by their fellow humans. Remember in your kingdom those who have died. Lead the oppressors towards compassion and give hope to the suffering. Through the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
We thank God for giving us the privilege of Sister Marie De Mandat-Grancey. Through her great generosity she acquired the property at Ephesus, the home of Mary and St. John the Evangelist. We ask God and Sister Marie to continue to bless the cornerstone given to her. "Around this cornerstone we build our faith and the powers of darkness will not prevail." We pray for God's will to be completely fulfilled through the intercession of Sister Marie. Amen.
Dear Sister Marie, I pray that you will intercede with our Lord Jesus Christ on behalf of my brother Brian and his family, on behalf of my Sister Ruth and her family, on behalf of my brother-in-law George and his family, on behalf of Teresa, Lynn Goodman-Straus, and Dave Tatum and his family, please ask our Lord to increase and improve their health. Please give thanks to our Lord for all he has done for Bob and Yoko and Eva, and for Mike Evans, Dave Tatum, Lynn, Eddie, and Rush. Please ask our Lord to work in the lives of Bob and Andrew and their families so that they may know Him as their Lord and Saviour. For all whom I pray, please ask our Lord to hold them close to his heart, that they will feel his love and wish to be with him forever. Amen.
Good and gentle Jesus, Whose loving Heart was ever troubled by the sorrows of others, look with pity upon the holy souls in Purgatory. Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. I ask this especially for Albina, Romeo, Jean and Guy, and for Jessica and all my deceased relatives, and Ed Ehrl, my friend. Amen.

Prayer for Our Nation
God our Father, giver of life, we
entrust the United States of America to your loving care. You
are the rock on which this nation was founded. You alone are
the true source of our cherished rights to life, liberty, and
the pursuit of happiness. Reclaim this land for your glory and
dwell among your people.
O Lord my God and Father, thank you for creating me, thank you for bringing me into the world this day.
Most especially, I thank You for your Son, my Lord Jesus Christ, who died for me upon the cross, descended to hell, and rose again on the third day that I might not die but should have everlasting life.
O my Jesus, thank you for your love. Please help me to reflect it into the world, that those who see it may come to know You, and love You, and wish to be with You through all eternity.
O most Holy Spirit, you who whisper in my ear, please help me to hear and listen to your Word, and to have the strength and courage to do as You ask.
I pray this in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us
