PRAYER FOR THE UNBORN Heavenly Father, You created us in Your own image, and You desire that not even the least among us should perish. In Your love for us, You entrusted Your only Son to the Holy Virgin Mary. Now, in Your love, protect against the wickedness of the devil, those little ones to whom You have given the gift of life. Amen

Nuestra Senora de los Desamparados

Nuestra Senora de los Desamparados

"Oh Virgen y reina del Santo Rosario, te rogamos que te dignes a escuchar nuestra plegaria. Tu que eres la intercesora de los desamparados. Cuida de esta pobre criatura para que ayudado por el corazón de tu Divino Hijo, encuentre en esta vida los consuelos y apoyos necesarios para salir adelante. Lo que te pedimos por tus dolores y sufrimientos pasados junto a tu Hijo en el Calvario. Amén"

Notre Dame de Sacre'-Coeur

O Dieu, qui avez voulu pour le triomphe de votre miséricorde et le salut de nos âmes, donner à Marie, Vierge immaculée, un pouvoir ineffable sur le Coeur de Jésus, accordez-nous, par ses prières et ses mérites, la grâce de vivre et de mourir dans votre saint amour. Nous vous le demandons par le même Jésus-Christ Notre-Seigneur. Ainsi soit-il.

The Eucharist

I adore Thee, O Jesus, true God and true Man,
here present in the Holy Eucharist,
humbly kneeling before Thee
and united in spirit with all the faithful on earth
and all the blessed in heaven.
In deepest gratitude for so great a blessing,
I love Thee, my Jesus, with my whole heart,
for Thou art all perfect and all worthy of love.
Give me grace nevermore
in any way to offend Thee, and grant that I,
being refreshed by Thy Eucharistic presence
here on earth, may be found worthy
to come to the enjoyment with Mary
of Thine eternal and everblessed presence in heaven.

Amen.

Saint Michael the Archangel

Sancte Michael Archangele,
defende nos in proelio;
contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto praesidium.
Imperet illi Deus,
tuque, Princeps militiae Caelestis,
satanam aliosque spiritus malignos,
qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo,
divina virtute in infernum detrude.
Amen.

Sacred Heart of Jesus


Prayer to the Wounded Heart of Jesus

O my Most Loving and Gentle Jesus, I desire with all the affections of my heart, that all beings should praise Thee, honor Thee and glorify Thee eternally for that sacred wound wherewith Thy divine side was rent. I deposit, enclose, conceal in that wound and in that opening in Thy Heart, my heart and all my feelings, thoughts, desires, intentions and all the faculties of my soul. I entreat Thee, by the precious Blood and Water that flowed from Thy Most Loving Heart, to take entire possession of me, that Thou may guide me in all things. Consume me in the burning fire of thy holy Love, so that I may be so absorbed and transformed into Thee that I may no longer be but one with Thee.

Amen.

Lanspergius, the Carthusian

In Bethlehem

Advent Prayer

Come, long-expected Jesus. Excite in me a wonder at the wisdom and power of Your Father and ours. Receive my prayer as part of my service of the Lord who enlists me in God's own work for justice.


Come, long-expected Jesus. Excite in me a hunger for peace: peace in the world, peace in my home, peace in myself.


Come, long-expected Jesus. Excite in me a joy responsive to the Father's joy. I seek His will so I can serve with gladness, singing and love.


Come, long-expected Jesus. Excite in me the joy and love and peace it is right to bring to the manger of my Lord. Raise in me, too, sober reverence for the God who acted there, hearty gratitude for the life begun there, and spirited resolution to serve the Father and Son.


I pray in the name of Jesus Christ, whose advent I hail. Amen.
