POPE FRANCIS I
Father John Donia, Adsministor Deacon Jack Boyle Sister Nicoletta Maria RSM, Pastoral Ministry,
Liturgy 701 East Gaul Street, Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania 19125 Rectory: 215-739-3960 / Fax: 215-739-7597
PRAYER FOR THE HOLY FATHER: O God, the Shepherd and Ruler of all Your faithful people, mercifully look upon your servant [Francis I], whom You
have chosen as the chief Shepherd to preside over Your Church. We beg You to help him edify, both by word and example, those
over whom he has charge, that he may reach everlasting life together with the flock entrusted to him. Through Christ our Lord.
Amen. LET
US PRAY FOR ALL OUR CLERGY Let us pray for all our clergy, the greatest and the least,
that God may always guide and keep His consecrated priests. Without
their words or their hands, if these things ever ceased, we would have no Holy Sacrifice, no Eucharistic Feast.
No Sacramental Jesus on our altars to adore, but just an empty chalice
behind a golden door. There would be no holy angels there
in awe and adoration, if we had no priests to say the words of Transubstantiation.
We still would have the temple, but we would not have the King.
Before a polished marble altar we would pray and we would sing.
No sacrifice, no sacraments, each with its special grace, could any
loss as great as this befall the human race? Priests bless
our parents' marriages, baptize us after birth, anoint us with the holy oils when we are about to leave this earth.
Priests receive the power to forgive the wrongs we have done; when
confessed with contrite heart, they are forgiven, every one. Priests
labor in the Mission fields in strange and distant lands, and heathen souls are made Heaven's heirs by holy priestly hands.
Let us pray for all our clergy, the greatest and the least, that God
may always guide and keep His consecrated priests. For
if we lose these holy men whom Christ sent in His stead, we will also lose those precious gifts for which He died and bled.

GOD, PLEASE... I asked God to take away my bad habits...

I asked God to grant me patience...
God said, "Patience is a by-product of tribulations; it isn't granted, it is learned."
I asked God to grant
me happiness...
God said, "I give you blessings; happiness is up to you."
I asked God to spare me pain...
God said, "Suffering brings you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to Me."
I asked God to make
my spirit grow...
God, said, "You must grow on your own, but I will prune you to make you fruitful."
I
asked God for all things that I might enjoy life...

I asked God to help me love others as much as He loves me...
