My prayer…

My God, and Abba Father, Jesus my Lord, and Savior, Holy Spirit within me, hear my prayers. Thank You for all Your blessings, love, mercy, grace and forgiveness.

Give me a wise and understanding heart, likened to Yours, with eyes of faith, and the strength and courage to persevere. Full of love, mercy and grace. Able to forgive all, interact and react with gentle kindness and prayer, dying to myself for the other. Surround me with Your presence, cover me in Your mercy and grace.

Holy Spirit, I give You my life and invite You to come to me, to overshadow me and to fill me with Your divine presence. As You fill me, give me the wisdom I need to speak of Your greatness and to be an instrument through which others are drawn into the glorious celebration of the birth of the Savior of the World. Come, Holy Spirit, fill me, consume me and use me for Your glory. Jesus, I trust in You.

As I pray this same prayer for each of mine, I ask that You continue to bless and protect each one, increasing their abilities to serve Your Kingdom. Teaching them in Your ways and showing them Your truths. Fill them with Your peace, patience, confidence and hope in Your promises by letting them feel Your presence. Give them an ear for Your voice, thirst for Your Word, and insight into the wisdom of Your Words. Answer their questions and enlighten their journey to You. Opening their hearts and minds to seek and know Your truths, love, mercy, grace and Church. Bring us closer as a family as we grow closer to You. Reveal Your plans for us, hear my prayers for us to live near each other. Jesus I trust in You!

I pray for those who are ill and or facing health issues and addiction;physical, mental and spiritual. I pray for their healing, recovery, wellness and awakening. Give them the strength they need to take control of their health and wellness and help them to make the necessary changes for a healthy lifestyle anchored in You. And those facing trails, tribulations and change. Show them Your face so they may feel Your presence. Jesus I trust in You!

I pray for the persecuted and homeless, and the children. They face challenges beyond their control or ability to change, many have been and are being abused, neglected and trafficked lacking proper care. Mother Mary pray for them, Lord Jesus help them. Jesus I trust in You!

I remember and pray for all of mine that have passed on to You. Mom and Dub, Dad, Abuelita and Abuelito, Titi Evelyn and Fernando, Nana and Coco, Titi Lisa and Manuel, Louie, Uncle Mike and Carmen, Rosa, Titi Mary and Harold, Titi Gladys, Titi Nellie, Abuelo Angel, Abuela, Bryce, Robert, Matthew, David and Dave, Peggy, Terri, Puchi, Celida and Pettie all those not listed but often remembered. I ask that You bless and heal those still grieving from their loss.

Lord, I pray for a true awakening and revival. One that unites us, Church and Country in Your name and readies us for Your return. Always awake and watchful. Help us stop the tribalism that divides us. Awaken us to Your truth’s, reminding us that the fruit of sin and hate is death for the sinner and hater. Maranatha, our Lord, come!

I pray for leaders – Pope, President, Bishops, Priests and Ministers, in the Church, in government, in civic positions, at the workplace and especially in the home. Awaken their hearts and souls to follow Your truths and the righteousness of a good Shepherd, stewardship and service of others. Help them avoid the evil of corruption, power and greed, shielding them from temptation. Jesus, Mary, I love You, save souls.

Not my will, but Yours Lord God.
In Jesus name I pray.
Amen.

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. In
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.

Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

Salve Regina (Hail Holy Queen)

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy, hail, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve: to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears.

Amen.

O God, whose only begotten Son, by His life, death, and resurrection, has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life.

Lord, I know I lack faith in my life. I fail to believe all that You speak to me. As a result, I often fail to put Your words into action. Dear Lord, when I suffer as a result of my weakness, help me to know that this and all suffering can result in giving glory to You if I renew my faith. Help me, like Zechariah, to return to You always, and use me as an instrument of Your manifest glory. Jesus, I trust in You.

Apostles (Nicene) Creed

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. In
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Lords Prayer

Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Salve Regina (Hail Holy Queen)

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy, hail, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve: to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears.

Amen.

O God, whose only begotten Son, by His life, death, and resurrection, has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life.

Most holy Lord, I know that You have a perfect plan for my life. I know that You have given me a mission that has not been given to anyone else. Please flood my soul with a holy desire to fully accomplish Your will and to do so with the most fervent commitment and strength. I, too, am a servant of You, O Lord; may it be done to me according to Your will. Mother Mary, pray for us. Jesus, I trust in You.

My prayer…

My God, and Abba Father, Jesus my Lord, and Savior, Holy Spirit within me, hear my prayers. Thank You for all Your blessings, love, mercy, grace and forgiveness.

Give me a wise and understanding heart, likened to Yours, with eyes of faith, and the strength and courage to persevere. Full of love, mercy and grace. Able to forgive all, interact and react with gentle kindness and prayer, dying to myself for the other. Surround me with Your presence, cover me in Your mercy and grace.

As I pray this same prayer for each of mine, I ask that You continue to bless and protect each one, increasing their abilities to serve Your Kingdom. Teaching them in Your ways and showing them Your truths. Fill them with Your peace, patience, confidence and hope in Your promises by letting them feel Your presence. Give them an ear for Your voice, thirst for Your Word, and insight into the wisdom of Your Words. Answer their questions and enlighten their journey to You. Opening their hearts and minds to seek and know Your truths, love, mercy, grace and Church. Bring us closer as a family as we grow closer to You. Reveal Your plans for us, hear my prayers for us to live near each other. Jesus I trust in You!

I pray for those who are ill and or facing health issues and addiction;physical, mental and spiritual. I pray for their healing, recovery, wellness and awakening. Give them the strength they need to take control of their health and wellness and help them to make the necessary changes for a healthy lifestyle anchored in You. And those facing trails, tribulations and change. Show them Your face so they may feel Your presence. Jesus I trust in You!

I pray for the persecuted and homeless, and the children. They face challenges beyond their control or ability to change, many have been and are being abused, neglected and trafficked lacking proper care. Mother Mary pray for them, Lord Jesus help them. Jesus I trust in You!

I remember and pray for all of mine that have passed on to You. Mom and Dub, Dad, Abuelita and Abuelito, Titi Evelyn and Fernando, Nana and Coco, Titi Lisa and Manuel, Louie, Uncle Mike and Carmen, Rosa, Titi Mary and Harold, Titi Gladys, Titi Nellie, Abuelo Angel, Abuela, Bryce, Robert, Matthew, David and Dave, Peggy, Terri, Puchi, Celida and Pettie all those not listed but often remembered. I ask that You bless and heal those still grieving from their loss.

Lord, I pray for a true awakening and revival. One that unites us, Church and Country in Your name and readies us for Your return. Always awake and watchful. Help us stop the tribalism that divides us. Awaken us to Your truth’s, reminding us that the fruit of sin and hate is death for the sinner and hater. Maranatha, our Lord, come!

I pray for leaders – Pope, President, Bishops, Priests and Ministers, in the Church, in government, in civic positions, at the workplace and especially in the home. Awaken their hearts and souls to follow Your truths and the righteousness of a good Shepherd, stewardship and service of others. Help them avoid the evil of corruption, power and greed, shielding them from temptation. Jesus, Mary, I love You, save souls.

Not my will, but Yours Lord God.
In Jesus name I pray.
Amen.
