Weekly Prayer

Today is All Saints Day a very special Catholic celebration of all of our saints who have died and attained Heaven. Our saints are holy role models we turn to for guidance by the examples of their lives and through their intercession on our behalf.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit

Almighty and Everlasting God,
who sets the flame of your love in the hearts of the saints,
grant to us the same faith and power of love;
We rejoice in their triumphs
May we profit by their holy example and caring intercession, 
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

St. Joseph, Our Patron, Pray For Us.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
