Prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
O most holy heart of Jesus, fountain of every blessing, I adore you,
I love you, and with lively sorrow for my sins, I offer you
this poor heart of mine. Make me humble, patient, pure,
and wholly obedient to your will. Grant, Good Jesus,
that I may live in you and for you. Protect me in the midst of
danger. Comfort me in my afflictions. Give me health of body,
assistance in my temporal needs, your blessings on all that I do,
and the grace of a holy death.
Amen

“Lord, make me an instrument of your peace; where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and there is sadness, joy.”
– St. Francis

“Prayer is, for me, an outburst from the heart; it is a simple glance darted upwards to Heaven; it is a cry of gratitude and of love in the midst of trial as in the midst of joy! In a word, it is something exalted, supernatural, which dilates the soul and unites it to God.”
– St. Therese of Lisieux
Prayer of St. Gertrude the Great
Eternal Father, I offer Thee the most precious blood
of thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the Masses
said throughout the world today, for all the
Holy Souls in Purgatory,
for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the
universal church, those in my own home
and within my family.
Amen
[ The Lord promised St. Gertrude that each time
this prayer was said 1000 souls from purgatory would be release ]
“Christ be with me, Christ within me, Christ behind me, Christ before me, Christ beside me, Christ to win me, Christ to comfort me and restore me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ in quiet, Christ in danger, Christ in hearts of all that love me, Christ in mouth of friend and stranger.”

St. Augustine’s Prayer to the Holy Spirit
Breathe in me, O Holy Spirit, that my thoughts may all be holy.
Act in me, O Holy Spirit, that my work, too, may be holy.
Draw my heart, O Holy Spirit, that I love but what is holy.
Strengthen me, O Holy Spirit, to defend all that is holy.
Guard me, then, O Holy Spirit, that I always may be holy.
Amen
