How many blessings, O Little Child has Your almighty right hand

 poured out on those who honor You and call upon You. 

Bless me also, O Child Jesus, my soul, my body and my interests. 

Bless and help me in my necessities, and grant me what I now desire. 

Listen with compassion to my prayers and 

I will bless Your Holy Name everyday.

Amen

The Baptism at the Jordan

"After Jesus was baptized, he came up from the water and behold, the Heaven were opened for him and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to Him.  And a voice came from Heaven saying "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased."

Matthew .3:16-17

Our Lady of Lourdes

Our Lady of Lourdes

O ever Immaculate Virgin, Mother of Mercy, Health of the Sick, Refuge of Sinners, Comfort to the Afflicted, you know my wants, my troubles, my sufferings. Deign to cast upon me a look of mercy. By appearing in the Grotto of Lourdes, you were pleased to make it  a privileged sanctuary, whence you dispense your favors; and already many sufferers have obtained the cure of their infirmities, both spiritual and corporal. 

I come, therefore, with the most unbounded confidence to implore your maternal intercession. 

Obtain,  O loving Mother, the granting of my requests.

Through gratitude for favors, I will endeavor to imitate your virtues that I may one day share your glory.

Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for us. Amen.

(Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be.)
