PRAYER IN TIMES OF TROUBLE AND AFFLICTION, ASK SAINT GERARD FOR PRAYERS

ST. GERARD MAJELLA Patron of Childbirth, Children, Falsely Accused People, Fever, Infants, Midwives, Newborn Babies, Obstetricians, & Pregnant Women

O Sainted Brother Gerard, whose heart went out to the unfortunate; who relieved so many poor, healed so many sick, comforted so many afflicted;behold me worried and troubled as I kneel at thy feet. In vain to turn to men to seek consolation and help;

therefore, do I have recourse to thee thou who art so powerful in heaven.

Graciously assist me, Saint Gerard, that being freed from this trial or strengthened to bear it for the love of God, I may praise and thank God and serve Him with greater love and fervor.

Amen.

Dear St. Joseph,

 Head of the most perfect household, foster father of Jesus and guardian of His Mother Mary, I confidently place myself and all my concerns under your care and protection.

(here mention or think of your home needs or any other petition, especially family needs ).

Good St. Joseph, I know with confidence, that your prayers on my behalf will be heard by God and that He will grant my request, if it be for His glory and my greater good.

Thank you St. Joseph, for having responded to my call.

Amen

HOW TO ATTEND THE HOLY MASS ACCORDING TO PADRE PIO

In 1915, Padre Pio wrote a letter to Annita Rodote on how to properly attend the Holy Mass:

The Divine Master calls the church the house of prayer. In order to avoid irreverence and imperfections I exhort you in the Lord to: Enter the church in silence and with great respect.

Take the holy water and make the sign of the cross carefully and slowly.

Before God in the Blessed Sacrament, genuflect devoutly.

At your pace, kneel down and render to Jesus the tribute of you presence.

Confide to him all your needs, and those of others.

Speak to him with filial abandonment. Be very composed when standing up, kneeling down, and sitting.

Carry out every religious act with the greatest devotion.

Be modest in your glance.

Don't turn your head here and there to see who enters and leaves.

Don't laugh.

Don't speak to anybody, except when requested for charity or other strict necessity.

Say the words distinctly, observe the pauses, and never hurry.

Behave in such a way that all the presents are edified by you.

Don't leave without asking Jesus for His blessing, and forgiveness for your shortcomings.

Leave the church recollected and calm.

The Mass is the complete union between Jesus and me.

All of Paradise is close to the altar when I say Mass.

The angels attend my Mass In legions.

The angels around the altar adore and love.

The Holy Virgin assists me.

I suffer the most from the Consecration to the Communion.

My suffering is insignificant compared to the suffering Jesus experienced.

I don’t want my Calvary to be alleviated; rather to make it harder. We must suffer.

Get into a state of grace. Go for Confession this week, so you can receive Jesus worthily in Holy Communion.

Saint PadrePio, pray for us.
