Prayers & The Divine Mercy Chaplet

The Divine Mercy Chaplet is prayed on Tuesdays in the Daily Mass Chapel, beginning at 5:05 pm. This is a devotion which honors Jesus as the source of divine mercy, assists the individual to seek that mercy which God alone bestows, and encourages the individual to be merciful to others.

The Chaplet of The Divine Mercy

1. Begin with the Sign of the Cross, 1 Our Father, 1 Hail Mary and The Apostles Creed.

2. Then on the Our Father Beads say the following:

Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your dearly beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.

3. On the 10 Hail Mary Beads say the following:

For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.

(Repeat step 2 and 3 for all five decades).

4. Conclude with (three times):

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world.

THE MEMORARE

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,

that never was it known that anyone who

fled to your protection, implored your help,

or sought your intercession, was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto

you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you

I come; before you I stand sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate!

Despise not my petitions, but in your mercy

hear and answer me. Amen.

HAIL, HOLY QUEEN

Hail, Holy Queen, Mother of Mercy, our

life, our sweetness, and our hope! To you do

we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to

you do we send up our sighs, mourning and

weeping in this vale of tears. Turn, then,

most gracious advocate, your eyes of mercy

toward us; and after this our exile, show

unto us the blessed fruit of your womb,

Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin

Mary! Pray for us, O holy Mother of God,

that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

ANIMA CHRISTI

Soul of Christ, sanctify me; Body of Christ,

save me; Blood of Christ, inebriate me;

Water from the side of Christ, wash me; Passion of Christ, strengthen me;

O good Jesus,hear me; Within your wounds hide me;

Separated from you, let me never be; From

the evil one protect me; At the hour of my

death, call me; And close to you hid me;

That with your saints, I may be, praising you

forever and ever. Amen.

PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS

Lord of the harvest, your Word finds a home

in our hearts, calls us into community and

invites us to generous service of the human

family. Bless with courage and spirit your

priestly people, called to full participation

in the one Body of Christ. May many choose

to respond in public service to your call offered in Jesus’ name. Amen

Joseph Cardinal Bernadin (1928-1996)

PRAYER TO ST. MICHAEL

Saint Michael, the Archangel, defend us in

battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil.

May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou, O

Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of

God, thrust into Hell Satan and the other

evil spirits who prowl about the world for

the ruin of souls. Amen.

Pope Leo XIII (1878 1903)

PRAYER FOR CHRISTIAN UNITY

Gracious Father, we pray to you for your

holy catholic Church. Fill it with your truth.

Keep it in your peace. Where it is corrupt,

reform it. Where it is in error, correct it.

Where it is right, defend it. Where it is in

want, provide for it. Where it is divided, reunite it;

for the sake of your Son, our Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.

William Laud

FOR PEACE

Mary, Queen of Peace, save us all, who

have so much trust in you, from wars, hatred, and oppression.

Make us all learn to live in peace, and educate ourselves for

peace, do what is demanded by justice and

respect the rights of every person, so that

peace may be firmly established. Amen.

Pope John Paul 11(1920 2005)

PRAYER FOR ALL NEEDS

We beg you, Lord, to help and defend us.

Deliver the oppressed. Pity the insignificant.

Raise the fallen. Show yourself to the needy.

Heal the sick. Bring back those of your people who have gone astray. Feed the hungry.

Lift up the weak. Take off the prisoners’ chains.

May every nation come to know that you alone are God, that Jesus is your Child, that

we are your people, the sheep you pasture. Amen.

Clement of Rome

MEETING PRAYER

We stand before you, Holy Spirit,

Conscious of our sinfulness,

But aware that we gather in your name.

Come to us, remain with us,

And enlighten our hearts.

Give us light and strength

To know your will,

To make it our own,

And to live it in our lives.

Guide us by your wisdom,

Support us by your power,

For you are God,

Sharing the glory of Father and Son.

You desire justice for all.

Enable us to uphold the rights of others.

Do not allow us to be misled by ignorance

Or corrupted by fear or favor.

Unite us to yourself in the bond of love

And keep us faithful to all that is true.

As we gather in your name

May we temper justice with love,

So that all our decisions

May be pleasing to you,

And earn the reward

Promised to good and faithful servants.

You live and reign with the Father and the son,

One God, forever and ever.

Amen.

A prayer said by the Bishops

Before every session of the Second Vatican Council.

Act of Faith

O my God, I firmly believe that You

are one God in three divine Persons,

Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I believe that

Your divine Son became man, died for our

sins and that He will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe these and all

the truths which the Holy Catholic Church

teaches, because You have revealed them,

Who can neither deceive nor be deceived.

Amen.

Act of Love

O my God, I love You above all

things with my whole heart and soul,

because You are all-good and worthy of all

love. I love my neighbor as myself for the

love of You. I forgive all who have injured

me, and ask pardon of all whom I have

injured. Amen.

Morning Offering

O Jesus, through the Immaculate

Heart of Mary, I offer You all my prayers,

works and sufferings of this day for all the

intentions of Your Sacred Heart, in union

with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass

throughout the world, in reparation for all

my sins, for the intentions of all our associates, and, in particular, for the intention of

our Holy Father for this month. Amen.

Guardian Angel

Angel of God, my guardian dear, to

whom His love commits me here. Ever

this day be at my side, to light and guard,

to rule and guide. Amen.

Prayer to Christ the King

Christ Jesus, I acknowledge You King of

the universe. All that has been created has

been made for You. Make full use of Your

rights over me.

I renew the promises I made in Baptism,

when I renounced Satan and all his pomps

and works, and I promise to live a good

Christian life and to do all in my power to

procure the triumph of the rights of God

and Your Church.

Divine Heart of Jesus, I offer You my

efforts in order to obtain that all hearts may

acknowledge Your Sacred Royalty, and

that thus the Kingdom of Your peace may

be established throughout the universe.

St. Ignatius

Prayer Before a Crucifix

Behold, my beloved and good Jesus, I

cast myself upon my knees in Your sight,

and with the most fervent desire of my soul

I pray and beseech You to impress upon

my heart lively sentiments of faith, hope

and charity, with true repentance for my

sins and a most firm desire of amendment;

while with deep affection and grief of soul

I consider within myself and mentally con-

template Your five most precious wounds,

having before my eyes that which David,

the prophet, long ago spoke about You, my

Jesus: “They have pierced my hands and

my feet; I can count all my bones.” (Psalm 22: 17-18)

Acts of Contrition
