My prayer…

My God, and Abba Father, Jesus my Lord, and Savior, Holy Spirit my companion and counselor, hear my prayers. You know me better than I know myself. You know my sinful ways and thoughts, fears and weaknesses. Here my cries. Guide me through this day and hold me and mine close to You.

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, with love, mercy and grace. Able to forgive all, interact and react with gentle kindness and prayer, dying to myself for the other. Surround me and mine with Your presence, cover us in Your love, peace, grace and mercy. Help us to discover all that Your will directs us to love more and all that Your will calls us to detach from. May we choose only You and that which is contained in Your holy and perfect will.

My passionate Lord, You hate sin but love the sinner. You perfectly desire to rid me of all sin and all attachment to sin. Please open my mind and heart to hear Your rebukes of Love so that I may respond to Your invitation to repent with all my heart. I love You dear Lord. Free me from sin so that I may love You more. Jesus, I trust in You.

As I pray this same prayers for each of mine, I ask that You, Jesus to continue to bless and protect each one of them, increasing their abilities to serve You and Your Kingdom. Teaching them in Your ways and showing them Your truths. Holy Spirit fill them with Your fruit of peace, patience, confidence and hope. Help them to trust in Your promises, and let 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 their Abba Father. Opening their hearts and minds to seek and know His truths, and Your love, grace, mercy 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 stay close and supportive of each other. Grateful for the time we get to spend together, hopeful for more! Growing in understanding and love through prayer and forgiveness of each other, as You forgive us. Jesus I trust in You!

I remember and pray for all of mine that have passed on to You. Mom, 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, Puchi, Celida, Pettie, Diana, Terri, Bryce, Robert, Matthew, David and Dave, Peggy, Joe, Mike and Jose as well as all those not listed but often remembered. Welcome them into Your Kingdom. Bless and heal those still grieving from their loss.

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. Help them make the necessary changes needed for a healthy lifestyle anchored in You. I pray for those facing trails, tribulations and change. Show them Your face so they may feel Your presence, and know the peace and hope that comes from it. 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 and lacking proper care and having special needs. Mother Mary pray for them, Lord Jesus help them. Jesus I trust in You!

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 vigilant! Help us stop the tribalism and wokeness 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 Leo, President Trump, Bishops – Barron, Strickland, Viganò, Priests – Father Octavio, Father Mike, Pastor McCormick, and all Deacons and Ministers, in all Your Churches, in government, in civic positions, at the workplace on the internet and especially in the home. Awaken their hearts and souls to follow Your truths and the righteousness of being a good Shepherd, the importance of good stewardship and service to others. Help them avoid the evil of corruption, power greed and lust, shielding them from temptation. Jesus, Mary, I love You, save souls.

Not my will, but Yours Lord God.

In Jesus name I pray.
Amen.

Help us to discover all that Your will directs us to love more and all that Your will calls us to detach from. May we choose only You and that which is contained in Your holy and perfect will.

Lord, as You journeyed through life, You looked only at the hearts of those You encountered. You treated each person with dignity and love. Please help me to shed all temptations to see others through the eyes of the world and to show full respect to all of Your sons and daughters. Jesus, I trust in You.

As I pray this same prayers for each of mine, I ask that You, Jesus to continue to bless and protect each one of them, increasing their abilities to serve You and Your Kingdom. Teaching them in Your ways and showing them Your truths. Holy Spirit fill them with Your fruit of peace, patience, confidence and hope. Help them to trust in Your promises, and let 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 their Abba Father. Opening their hearts and minds to seek and know His truths, and Your love, grace, mercy 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 stay close and supportive of each other. Grateful for the time we get to spend together, hopeful for more! Growing in understanding and love through prayer and forgiveness of each other, as You forgive us. Jesus I trust in You!

I remember and pray for all of mine that have passed on to You. Mom, 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, Puchi, Celida, Pettie, Diana, Terri, Bryce, Robert, Matthew, David and Dave, Peggy, Joe, Mike and Jose as well as all those not listed but often remembered. Welcome them into Your Kingdom. Bless and heal those still grieving from their loss.

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. Help them make the necessary changes needed for a healthy lifestyle anchored in You. I pray for those facing trails, tribulations and change. Show them Your face so they may feel Your presence, and know the peace and hope that comes from it. 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 and lacking proper care and having special needs. Mother Mary pray for them, Lord Jesus help them. Jesus I trust in You!

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 vigilant! Help us stop the tribalism and wokeness 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 Leo, President Trump, Bishops – Barron, Strickland, Viganò, Priests – Father Octavio, Father Mike, Pastor McCormick, and all Deacons and Ministers, in all Your Churches, in government, in civic positions, at the workplace on the internet and especially in the home. Awaken their hearts and souls to follow Your truths and the righteousness of being a good Shepherd, the importance of good stewardship and service to others. Help them avoid the evil of corruption, power greed and lust, shielding them from temptation. Jesus, Mary, I love You, save souls.

Not my will, but Yours Lord God.

In Jesus name I pray.
Amen.

My exalted Lord, You are exalted far above all others. You are Greatness Itself. The life You lived, dear Lord, was one of the greatest humility.

Welcome them into Your Kingdom. Bless and heal those still grieving from their loss.

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. Help them make the necessary changes needed for a healthy lifestyle anchored in You. I pray for those facing trails, tribulations and change. Show them Your face so they may feel Your presence, and know the peace and hope that comes from it. 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 and lacking proper care and having special needs. Mother Mary pray for them, Lord Jesus help them. Jesus I trust in You!

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 vigilant! Help us stop the tribalism and wokeness 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 Leo, President Trump, Bishops – Barron, Strickland, Viganò, Priests – Father Octavio, Father Mike, Pastor McCormick, and all Deacons and Ministers, in all Your Churches, in government, in civic positions, at the workplace on the internet and especially in the home. Awaken their hearts and souls to follow Your truths and the righteousness of being a good Shepherd, the importance of good stewardship and service to others. Help them avoid the evil of corruption, power greed and lust, shielding them from temptation. Jesus, Mary, I love You, save souls.

Not my will, but Yours Lord God.

In Jesus name I pray.
Amen.

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.

Hail Mary

Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

Glory be to the Father

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
Amen.

O my Jesus

O my Jesus, have mercy on us. Forgive us our sins. Save us from the fires of hell. Take all souls into heaven, especially, those most in need of thy mercy.
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. Turn then, most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus, O merciful, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!
Amen.

Closing Prayer

O God, whose only begotten Son, by His life, death, and resurrection, has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life. Grant, we beseech Thee, that by meditating on these mysteries of the most holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise, through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
