A DAILY PRAYER FOR PRIESTS

St Terese of Lisieux  said a daily prayer for priests  we could all consider doing the same.

O Jesus, I pray for your faithful and fervent priests;
for your unfaithful and tepid priests;
for your priests laboring at home or abroad in distant mission fields.
for your tempted priests;
for your lonely and desolate priests;
For your young priests;
for your dying priests;
for the souls of your priests in Purgatory.
But above all, I recommend to you the priests dearest to me:
the priest who baptized me;
the priests who absolved me from my sins;
the priests at whose Masses I assisted and who gave me Your Body and Blood in Holy Communion;
the priests who taught and instructed me;
all the priests to whom I am indebted in any other way (especially …).
O Jesus, keep them all close to your heart,
and bless them abundantly in time and in eternity. Amen.

OUR LADY OF PERPETUAL SUCCOUR REFLECTIONS

In the run up to the 2016 Novena, Fr Tim Buckley approached the local junior and secondary schools and to invite them to participate in the event. The  then chaplain of St. Julies, Mike Anderson produced a series of reflections that would be used within the school and on the walk of witness that St. Julie's and St Francis Xavier college undertook on the 22nd June 2016.

Mike kindly agreed that the videos can be shared, and you will find them below. 

Prayer for the Jubilee

 

O Mother of Perpetual Help,

Icon of Love

Your sorrowful gaze

at our suffering and that of Jesus

entrusts us into the love of the Father

Help us to make you known even more

And to be missionaries

of the good, beautiful and joyful life of the Gospel

Open our hearts

to the cry of those without hope

until all come to believe.

Teach us

to  ponder the Word in our heart

and to do what your Son asks us to do

Enable us to walk with you

with the great light of faith

to light up our path

Thus one day we will be able

to contemplate with you

the face of the Father

who with the Son and Holy Spirit

lives and reigns forever and ever.

AMEN
