On Monday and Friday of this week, the Catholic Church will celebrate the feasts of the Apostles, St. Peter, St. Paul, and St. Thomas. Our prayer theme this week will be to seek the guidance of those who walked with Jesus through His ministry; healing the sick, feeding the hungry, clothing the poor, and offering witness of the hope that believing in Jesus Christ as the Son of God will bring to each of us. We begin with the Apostle’s Creed.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
O Holy Apostle, St. Peter, you are the Rock upon which Almighty God has built His Church. Obtain for me I pray: lively faith, firm hope, and burning love, patience in adversity, humility in prosperity, recollection in prayer, purity of heart, a right intention in all my works, diligence in fulfilling the duties of my state of life, constancy in my resolutions, resignation to the will of God and perseverance in the grace of God; that so, by means of your intercession and your glorious merits, I may be forever mindful of the strength Jesus gives me to carry on and endure.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
