In the darkness, there will be many conversions
“There will come a time, a very distant time, when you (Satan) will possess in the world a multitude so great that your portion will exceed Mine. You will become a great conqueror for a period of time that will be very long and yet will be very short. While you conquer multitudes, I will work wonders and brilliant earthquakes, when the world is ready to perish, when you will triumph with a victory without measure, when almost all parts of the world, all of Europe, will rise up against each other. In the darkness, there will be many conversions, many of the lost will return to Me in repentance.”
JESUS
to the Satan before Him after His Ascension.
Revelations for Marie-Julie Jahenny
French mystic and victim soul who suffered for the sins of the world (1850-1941)

Gud, kom meg til hjelp
Herre, vær snar til frelse.
Ære være Faderen og Sønnen og den Hellige Ånd.
Som det var i opphavet, så nå og alltid og i all evighet. Amen.
Hymne
Hold oppe, Gud, hos oss ditt ord,
la det få overmakt på jord
mot dem som Krist din Sønn, vår sol,
vil støte fra hans kongestol!
La sees, Herre Krist, ditt verk,
at du er fremfor alle sterk,
forsvar din arme kristenhet,
ditt navn til pris i evighet.
Gud Hellig And, du trøster sann,
gi enig tro i alle land!
Bli hos oss i vår siste nød,
gi oss i Gud en salig død!
eller: O Gud, på nåde rik ⇓⇑
eller: Du, Herre, opprettholder alt ⇓⇑
Ant. Mitt hjärta och min kropp jublar mot levande Gud.
Salme 118
Frelsens jubelsang
Dette er den sten som dere, bygningsmennene, så med forakt på, men som blitt hjørnesten (Apg 4,11).
I
Lovpris Herren for han er god, *
evig er hans kjærlighet.
Israels hus forkynne det, *
evig er hans kjærlighet.Arons hus forkynne det, *
evig er hans kjærlighet.
De som frykter Herren, forkynne det, *
evig er hans kjærlighet.I min trengsel ropte jeg til Herren. *
Han svarte og førte meg ut på åpent land.
Herren er med meg, jeg frykter ikke. *
Hva kan et menneske gjøre meg?Er Herren mm hjelper, *
kan jeg se mine fiender i øynene uten frykt.
Bedre å ta sin tilflukt til Herren *
enn å sette sin lit til mennesker.Bedre å ta sin tilflukt til Herren *
enn å stole på jordens mektige.
Ære være Faderen og Sønnen *
og den Hellige Ånd,som det var i opphavet, så nå og alltid *
og i all evighet. Amen.
II
Hedninger omringet meg, *
i Herrens navn slo jeg dem tilbake.
På alle kanter omringet de meg, *
i Herrens navn slo jeg dem tilbake.De svirret omkring meg som vepser, +
men sluknet som ild i tornekratt, *
i Herrens navn slo jeg dem tilbake.
De trengte seg inn på meg, de ville slå meg ned, *
men Herren kom meg til hjelp.Herren er min styrke og lovsang; *
han ble meg til frelse.
Hør, jubel og seiersrop lyder i de rettferdiges telt! *
Herrens høyre har gjort storverk.Herrens høyre hånd reiser opp, *
Herrens høyre har gjort storverk.
Jeg skal ikke dø, men leve *
og forkynne Herrens gjerningenHårdt har Herren tuktet meg, *
men han lot meg ikke dø.
Ære være Faderen og Sønnen *
og den Hellige Ånd,som det var i opphavet, så nå og alltid *
og i all evighet. Amen.
III
Lukk rettferdighetens porter opp for meg. *
Jeg vil gå inn og prise Herren.
Dette er Herrens port. *
Her går de rettferdige inn.Jeg takker deg, for du hørte min bønn, *
du ble meg til frelse.
Stenen bygningsmennene vraket, *
er blitt til hjørnesten.Dette er Herrens verk. *
Det er underfullt i våre øyne.
Dette er dagen som Herren har gjort, *
en dag til fryd og til glede.Å Herre, frels oss da! *
A Herre, la oss seire!
Velsignet være han som kommer i Herrens navn! *
Vi velsigner dere fra Herrens hus.Herren er Gud, han skjenker oss lys, *
gå i samlet flokk med palmegrener til hans alter.
Du er min Gud, jeg vil prise deg, *
min Gud, jeg vil opphøye deg.Jeg takker deg, for du hørte min bønn, *
du ble meg til frelse.
Lovpris Herren, for han er god, *
evig er hans kjærlighet.Ære være Faderen og Sønnen *
og den Hellige Ånd,
som det var i opphavet, så nå og alltid *
og i all evighet. Amen.
Ant. Mitt hjärta och min kropp jublar mot levande Gud.

Petnaest molitava svete Brigite
Petnaest molitava svete Brigite popularan su i pobožan način razmatranja o Kristovoj muci i pribijanju na križ. Tijekom stoljeća, ove su se kratke meditacije raširile diljem svijeta te se u Katoličkoj Crkvi potiče njihova molitva.
U svojim je Objavama opisivala mistična viđenja Isusove muke i smrti na križu. Isus joj je objavio molitve na cast svoje muke uz velika obećanja milosti za sve koji ih budu molili. Brigita je rođena 1303. u Finsteru, u Švedskoj. Nakon 28 godina braka i osmero djece ostala je udovica i molitvi, pokori i djelima ljubavi. Zaštitnica je Europe, Švedske i udovica. Spomendan joj je 23. srpnja. Petnaest molitava svete Brigite moli se svakodnevno godinu dana. Može se započeti bilo kada, a blagdan svete Brigite dobar je poticaj da se započne s ovom pobožnošću.
Petnaest molitava svete Brigite
Uvod
Petnaest molitava svete Brigite o Muci Spasiteljevoj, što ih je naš Gospodin Isus Krist objavio svetoj Brigiti Švedskoj u bazilici svetoga Pavla, izvan zidina u Rimu, predstavlja osobitu pobožnost prema Muci našega Gospodina.
Sveta je Brigita dugo željela znati broj udaraca što ih je naš Gospodin primio u svojoj Muci. Jednoga joj se dana on ukaza i reče: „Ja sam primio na svojemu tijelu pet tisuća četiri stotine i osamdeset uda- raca. Ako ih hoćeš častiti kakvom pobožnošću, onda moli petnaest puta Očenaš i petnaest puta Zdravomariju uz ove molitve [što ih ju je on sam naučio] tijekom cijele godine. Kada se ta godina završi, time će biti pozdravljena svaka moja rana.” Gospodin je dodao da će svaki koji bude molio te molitve godinu dana osloboditi petnaest duša svoje loze iz čistilišta, petnaest pravednika te iste loze bit će utvrđeno i sačuvano u milosti i obratit će se petnaest grešnika te iste loze”.
Ovu su pobožnost odobrili Sveta kongregacija za širenje vjere (De propaganda fide) i papa Klement XII. (1730. – 1740). O tim je obja vama papa Benedikt XIV. napisao: „Objave svete Brigite, bez sumnje, ne zaslužuju onu vjeru kao što je zaslužuju vjerske istine. Ali bi ih bilo nerazborito zanemariti jer počivaju na dovoljnim razlozima da im se pobožno vjeruje.”
U ime Oca i Sina i Duha Svetoga. Amen.
Bože, u pomoć mi priteci!
Gospodine, pohiti da mi pomogneš!
Slava Ocu…

Prva molitva: Isusova muka na Maslinskoj gori i do njegove krunidbe trnjem
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo…
Isuse Kriste, vječna slasti za sve one koji Te ljube, radosti što nadilaziš svaku drugu radost i svaku želju, spasenje i ufanje svih grešnika! Ti si pokazao da nemaš većega zadovoljstva od toga da budeš među ljudima tako da si u punini vremena uzeo i ljudsku narav iz ljubavi prema njima. Sjeti se svih patnja što si ih pretrpio od časa svojega začeća, a osobito za svoje svete Muke kako je to bilo odlučeno i određeno po Božjem naumu u vječnosti.
Gospodine, sjeti se svoje posljednje Večere sa svojim učenicima kada si im oprao noge, dao im svoje sveto Tijelo i predragocjenu Krv, prorekao im svoju skoru Muku, a uz to ih i blago tješio. Spomeni se žalosti i gorčine što si ih osjetio u svojoj duši, kako si to i sam posvjedočio kada si rekao: “Žalosna je moja duša do smrti!” Isuse dragi, sjeti se strahovanja, tjeskoba i boli što si ih pretrpio u svojemu nježnom Tijelu prije svoje Muke na Križu, kako si se oznojio krvavim znojem za svoje trokratne molitve, kako Te poljupcem izdao Tvoj učenik Juda i uhvatio Te Tvoj narod kojeg si Ti izabrao i uzvisio; kako su Te optužili lažni svjedoci i nepravedno sudila tri suca u cvijetu Tvoje mladosti, a u svečano vrijeme Pashe!
Mili Spasitelju, sjeti se kako si bio lišen svoje vlastite odjeće i za ruglo bio odjeven, najprije od Heroda kao luđak u bijelu haljinu, a zatim od vojnika, na pogrdu, i u crvenu haljinu; kako su Ti smrdljivom krpom pokrili oči i Tvoje Sveto Lice; kako su te ćuškali, krunili Ti glavu trnovom krunom; stavili Ti u ruku trsku i njome Te tukli po glavi; kako su Te privezali uza stup i rastrgali Te udarcima bičeva i još Te obasuli pogrdama i uvredama! Presveti Otkupitelju, po zaslugama svih svojih patnji i boli što si ih pretrpio prije svoje Muke na Križu, podijeli mi prije moje smrti milost da se savršeno pokajem, da se iskreno i potpuno ispovjedim, da učinim dostojnu zadovoljštinu i da zadobijem oproštenje svih svojih grijeha! Amen!
Druga molitva: Pogrđivanje Isusa
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo…
O, Isuse, savršena slobodo anđela, rajska naslado, sjeti se strašne žalosti što si je pretrpio kad su Te okružili Tvoji neprijatelji kao bijesni lavovi i vrijeđali Te nebrojenim uvredama, pljuvali Ti u sveto Lice, ćuškali ga i natjecali se tko će Tebe više mučiti drugim nečuvenim zlostavljanjima. Spasitelju moj, po zaslugama tih svojih boli, pogrda i uvreda molim Te da me oslobodiš od svih mojih neprijatelja, vidljivih i nevidljivih i da mi dadeš milost da pod Tvojom zaštitom dođem do savršene punine vječnoga spasenja! Amen!
Treća molitva: Isusovo razapeće na križu
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo…
O, Isuse, neizmjerni i neograničeni Stvoritelju neba i zemlje koji sve obuhvaćaš i sve držiš u svojoj vlasti, sjeti se pregorke boli što si je pretrpio kad su Ti Židovi uz Križ privezali Tvoje svete, nježne ruke i noge i probili ih debelim, tupim čavlima; a kada ih nije zadovoljio Tvoj položaj, da uzmognu ugoditi svojem bjesnilu, raširili su Tvoje Rane, zadavali Ti bol na bol, istegnuli Te na Križu zlobnom okrutnošću, vukli Te na sve strane i iščašili Tvoje udove! Ljubljeni Otkupitelju, usrdno Te molim da mi po zaslugama tih svojih presvetih boli na Križu, punih ljubavi za nas, uliješ strah i ljubav prema sebi! Amen!
Četvrta molitva: Isusova molitva za svoje mučitelje
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo…
O, Isuse, nebeski liječniče, na Križ podignut da svojim ranama izliječiš naše rane, sjeti se boli i ozljeda što si ih pretrpio na svim svojim udovima od kojih ni jedan nije ostao na svojemu mjestu tako da nije bilo boli slične Tvojoj boli! Od pete do vrha glave ni jedan dio Tvojega Tijela nije bio bez muka. Ali uza sve to trpljenje Ti nisi propustio moliti svojega Oca za svoje neprijatelje: “Oče, oprosti im jer ne znaju što čine!” Po tom svojem velikom milosrđu i po zaslugama tih svojih boli daj nam milost da spomen na Tvoju pregorku muku probudi u nama savršeno pokajanje da zadobijemo oproštenje svih svojih grijeha! Amen!
Peta molitva: Isusovo milosrđe za raskajane grešnike
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo…
O, Isuse, ogledalo vječnoga sjaja, sjeti se kako si u svjetlu svojega Božanstva promatrao predodređenje onih što će se spasiti po zaslugama Tvoje svete Muke, ali si istodobno oćutio i žalost i gorko žalio propast i očaj velikoga mnoštva onih nesretnih grešnika što će biti osuđeni zbog svojih grijeha! Po tomu bezdanu svoje sućuti i milosrđa, a osobito po dobroti što si je pokazao prema raskajanom razbojniku kada si mu rekao: “Još danas ćeš biti sa mnom u raju”, molim Te, blagi Isuse, smiluj se i meni u času moje smrti! Amen!
Šesta molitva: Isusova oporuka na križu
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo…
O, Isuse, preljubazni i živo žuđeni Kralju, sjeti se boli što si je pretrpio kada su Te svukli do gola, kao bijednika, pribili Te i uzdigli na Križ! Svi su Te Tvoji rođaci i prijatelji ostavili na Križu, osim Tvoje ljubljene Majke koja je vjerno ostajala uz Tebe u Tvojoj smrtnoj borbi. Nju si predao svome vjernom učeniku rekavši svojoj presvetoj Majci Mariji: “Ženo, evo Ti sina!”, a svetom Ivanu: “Evo ti Majke!” Spasitelju dobri, molim Te da se po maču boli što je tada probo dušu Tvoje presvete, prežalosne Majke smiluješ meni u svim mojim žalostima i nevoljama, tjelesnim i duševnim i da budeš uza me u svim kušnjama, a osobito u času moje smrti! Amen!
Sedma molitva: Isusova žeđ
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo…
O, Isuse, neiscrpni izvore milosrđa, s dubokim osjećajem ljubavi rekao si na Križu: “Žedan sam!” To je bila Tvoja žeđ za spasenjem ljudskoga roda. Premili Spasitelju, raspali naša srca željom da težimo za savršenstvom u svim svojim djelima! Potpuno ugasi u nama tjelesnu požudu i žar svjetovnih želja! Amen!
Osma molitva: Isusov napitak na križu
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo…
O, Isuse, slasti srdaca i naslado duhova, po gorčini žuči i octa što si ih kušao na Križu iz ljubavi prema nama, daj nama milost da dostojno primamo Tvoje Presveto Tijelo i Tvoju Predragocjenu Krv za života i u času svoje smrti da budu lijek i utjeha našim dušama! Amen!
Deveta molitva: Isusov tjeskobni vapaj na križu
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo..
O, Isuse, svemogući Kralju, najviša duhovna radosti, sjeti se boli što si je pretrpio kada si uronjen u gorčini bliske smrti, napadan i vrijeđan od Židova, glasno zavapio da si ostavljen od svojega Oca pa si mu se potužio: “Bože moj, Bože moj, zašto si me ostavio?” Spasitelju moj, usrdno Te molim da me po zaslugama te Svoje smrtne tjeskobe ne ostaviš u gorkim bolima moje smrti! Amen!
Deseta molitva: Isusove velike rane na križu
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo...
O, Isuse, početniče i posljednji cilju svih stvari, životvorna silo, sjeti se kako si uronio u bezdan boli od pete do glave te po zaslugama svojih velikih rana nauči me da s iskrenom ljubavlju vršim Tvoje zapovijedi kojih je put širok i lagan onima koji Te ljube! Amen!
Jedanaesta molitva: Isusove duboke Rane na križu
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo...
O, Isuse, duboki bezdane milosrđa, molim Te po zaslugama Tvojih rana, što su prodrle do srži Tvojih kostiju i Tvoje utrobe, izvuci iz grijeha mene bijednika svega ogrezla u opačinama i sakrij me pred svojim rasrđenim Licem u svoje rane dok ne mine Tvoja srdžba i pravedna zlovolja! Amen!
Dvanaesta molitva: Isusove krvave Rane na križu
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo...
O, Isuse, ogledalo istine, pečate jedinstva, svezo ljubavi, sjeti se mnogih rana kojima si bio izranjen od glave do pete, sav rastrgan i crven od prolivene Predragocjene Krvi. O velike boli što si je pretrpio iz ljubavi prema nama na svomu čitavom nevinom Tijelu! Blagi Isuse, što si za nas još mogao učiniti, a da toga nisi već i učinio? Spasitelju predragi, usrdno Te molim utisni svojom Predragocjenom Krvlju sve svoje rane u moje srce da u njima neprestano čitam Tvoje boli i Tvoju ljubav! Daj da se vjerno spominjem Tvoje Muke i da se tako u mojoj duši obnavlja plod Tvojih patnja i da se svakog dana sve više umnoži moja ljubav prema Tebi, sve dok ne stignem k Tebi, dobri Spasitelju, koji si riznica svih dobara i radosti za koje Te molim da mi ih dadeš u vječnom životu! Amen!
Trinaesta molitva: Isusova smrtna tjeskoba na križu
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo...
O, Isuse, jaki lave, besmrtni i nepobjedivi Kralju, sjeti se boli što si je pretrpio dok su se sve Tvoje sile i Srca i Tijela potpuno iscrpile pa si onda priklonio glavu i rekao: “Svršeno je!” Po zaslugama te Tvoje tjeskobe i boli, molim Te, Gospodine Isuse, smiluj mi se u posljednjem času moga života kada moja duša bude u tjeskobi i duh moj uznemiren! Amen!
Četrnaesta molitva: Isusova smrt na križu
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo…
Isuse, jedinorođeni Sine Očev, odsjaju i sliko njegove biti, sjeti se kako si se ukratko i ponizno preporučio svojemu Ocu kada si mu rekao: „Oče moj, u tvoje ruke predajem duh svoj!” Tijelo ti je bilo ranama rastrgano, srce slomljeno i ti si izdahnuo, pun milosrđa za nas, samo da nas otkupiš. Kralju svetaca, po zaslugama svoje predragocjene smrti ojačaj me i pomozi mi da se oduprem zlom duhu tijela i krvi, da umrem svijetu i živim samo tebi. Molim te, primi u času smrti moju hodočasničku i prognanu dušu, koja se vraća k tebi. Amen.
Petnaesta molitva: Isusovo posljednje sveproliće krvi
Oče naš… Zdravo, Marijo…
O, Isuse, pravi plodni trse, sjeti se kako si obilno i velikodušno prolio svu svoju Krv iz svoga svetoga Tijela kao grožđe pod tijeskom! Od udarca vojnikova koplja potekla je iz Tvojega probodenog Srca Krv i Voda tako da u njemu nije ostala ni jedna jedina kap. Bio si uzdignut na Križu kao kitica mirte. Nježno Ti je Tijelo uvenulo, sokovi su Tvoje utrobe presahnuli, srž se Tvojih kostiju osušila. Po zaslugama te Tvoje gorke Muke i po Tvojoj prolivenoj Predragocjenoj Krvi molim Te, dobri Isuse, primi moju dušu kada budem u svojoj smrtnoj borbi! Amen!
Zaključna molitva:
Pomolimo se:
Moj blagi i vjerni Isuse, raspeti Otkupitelju, rani moje srce da mi pokajničke suze boli i ljubavi budu hranom dan i noć! Svega me obrati k Sebi da Ti moje srce bude vječitim stanom, da Ti se moje vladanje svidi i da Ti kraj mojega života toliko omili da me poslije moje smrti primiš u nebo da Te zauvijek slavim sa svim svetima! Amen!
Pomolimo se: Gospodine Bože, koji si blaženoj Brigiti objavio po svom Sinu nebeske tajne, daj nama, svojim slugama, po njezinu pobožnom zagovoru, da se veselo radujemo pri objavi Tvoje vječne slave! Po istom Kristu Gospodinu našemu! Amen!
Sveta Brigito, moli za nas!
Zdravo, Marijo…

Wednesday 7 October
Today we celebrateSitting at the School of Mary
Our Lady of the Rosary
The meaning of the feast:
+ This celebration—originally dedicated to Mary under her title Our Lady of Victories—was introduced by the Dominican Pope Saint Pius V to commemorate the victory of the Christian fleet against the Turkish navy at the Battle of Lepanto in 1572.
+ In 1573, Pope Gregory XIII changed the title of the celebration to “Our Lady of the Rosary.” It has been celebrated by the Universal Church since 1716.
+ The texts of Mass for this feast highlight Mary’s contemplative spirit as she “held within her heart” the mysteries of the life of Jesus and her own union with God.
For prayer and reflection:
“In the prayer of the Rosary we turn to the Virgin Mary so that she may bring us ever closer to her son Jesus, so as to know him and to love him more and more. And as we repeat 'Hail Mary,' we meditate on the mysteries, the joyous, luminous, painful and glorious phases of Christ’s life, but also of our lives because we journey with the Lord. This simple prayer, in fact, helps us to contemplate all that God in his love has done for us and for our salvation, and allows us to understand that our life is united to that of Christ.”—Pope Francis
Spiritual bonus:
October 7 we also remember the martyrs Saints Sergius and Bacchus. According to legend, they were officers in the army of the Emperor Galerius who were killed in Syria in the early 4th century. Devotion to these saints was widespread in the Middle Ages and they have come to be honored as patron saints of Syria and of soldiers.
Prayer
Pour forth, we beseech you, O Lord,
your grace into our hearts,
that we, to whom the Incarnation of Christ your Son
was made known by the message of an Angel,
may, through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary,
by his Passion and Cross
be brought to the glory of his Resurrection.
Who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever. Amen.
(from The Roman Missal)

Meditation of the Day
Teach Us to Pray
Got your letter this morning and hasten to write encouragement. I must…convince you that God has need of you being right where you are. Dryness and lack of recollection can be good signs too, you know. God usually gives comfort to weak souls who need encouragement and when they have progressed somewhat and he thinks they are strong enough to bear it, he permits this dryness.
If you are faithful to your morning and evening prayers, and make your morning offering, and carry your rosary in your pocket so that you will remember to say even a part of it every day, you will be getting along fine. If you have to force yourself to pray, those prayers are of far more account with God than any prayers which bring comfort with them. That act of will is very important…. The very times when you think that no progress is being made are usually the best.

Prayers of the day
Our Lady of the Rosary
Prayer for the Morning
Let us proclaim God’s goodness
in the assembly of the faithful!
Glory to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning,
is now, and will be for ever. Amen. Alleluia!
HymnMeter: LM
This hymn can be sung to the tune used for
On Jordan’s Bank
The gladness of thy motherhood,
The anguish of thy suffering,
The glory now that crowns thy brow,
O Virgin-Mother, we would sing.
Hail, blessed mother, full of joy
In thy consent, thy visit too;
Joy in the birth of Christ on earth,
Joy in him lost and found anew.
Hail, sorrowing in his agony—
The blows, the thorns that pierced his brow;
The heavy wood, the shameful Rood—
True queen and chief of martyrs thou!
Hail in the triumph of thy Son,
The quick’ning flames of Pentecost;
Shining a queen in light serene,
When all the world is tempest-tossed.
O come, you nations, roses bring
Culled from these mysteries divine,
And for the mother of your King
With loving hearts your chaplets twine.
Psalm 861-6, 11-13
All these devoted themselves with one accord to prayer, together with some women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers. (Acts 1:14)
Mary, Mother of the Church, prays with us and for us. Through her example and intercession, we learn the lesson of faithful prayer, just as through our meditation on the mysteries of the rosary we learn the lesson of faithful life taught by Mary and by her Son Jesus.
Turn your ear, O Lord, and give answer
for I am poor and needy.
Preserve my life, for I am faithful:
save the servant who trusts in you.
You are my God, have mercy on me, Lord,
for I cry to you all the day long.
Give joy to your servant, O Lord,
for to you I lift up my soul.
O Lord, you are good and forgiving,
full of love to all who call.
Give heed, O Lord, to my prayer
and attend to the sound of my voice.
Show me, Lord, your way
so that I may walk in your truth.
Guide my heart to fear your name.
I will praise you, Lord my God, with all my heart
and glorify your name for ever;
for your love to me has been great:
you have saved me from the depths of the grave.
Glory to the Father….
Word of GodEphesians 6:18
With all prayer and supplication, pray at every opportunity in the Spirit. To that end, be watchful with all perseverance and supplication for all the holy ones.
When you call me, when you go to pray to me,
I will listen to you.
Canticle of Zechariah(Text, back cover B)
As for me, far be it from me to sin against the Lord by ceasing to pray for you and to teach you the good and right way. (1 Sm 12:23)
Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel;
he has come to his people and set them free.
He has raised up for us a mighty savior,
born of the house of his servant David.
Through his holy prophets he promised of old
that he would save us from our enemies,
from the hands of all who hate us.
He promised to show mercy to our fathers
and to remember his holy covenant.
This was the oath he swore to our father Abraham:
to set us free from the hands of our enemies,
free to worship him without fear,
holy and righteous in his sight
all the days of our life.
You, my child, shall be called the prophet
of the Most High;
for you will go before the Lord to prepare his way,
to give his people knowledge of salvation
by the forgiveness of their sins.
In the tender compassion of our God
the dawn from on high shall break upon us,
to shine on those who dwell in darkness
and the shadow of death,
and to guide our feet into the way of peace.
Glory to the Father…
Intercessions
Let us ask Mary’s intercession on behalf of all in need:
Lord, hear your Mother’s prayer.
Mother of good counsel, you prayed with the disciples as they waited in the Upper Room:
– pray for all who await deliverance from suffering and death.
Mother of our Savior, you watch with a mother’s care over the whole Body of Christ:
– pray for all in need of salvation.
Mother of God, you dwell in glory before the face of God:
– pray always for your children.
Personal intentions
Our Father….
Loving Father, increase our devotion to the most holy rosary, and draw us ever closer to you through the intercession of the Mother of your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Prayer for the Evening
Come, let us praise the Lord our God
on this feast of the Blessed Virgin Mary!
Glory to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning,
is now, and will be for ever. Amen. Alleluia!
HymnMeter: 87 87 D
Sing of Mary, pure and lowly,
Virgin mother undefiled;
Sing of God’s own Son most holy,
Who became her little child.
Fairest child of fairest mother,
God the Lord who came to earth,
Word made flesh, our very brother,
Takes our nature by his birth.
Sing of Jesus, son of Mary,
In the home at Nazareth.
Toil and labor cannot weary
Love enduring unto death.
Constant was the love he gave her,
Though it drove him from her side,
Forth to preach, and heal, and suffer,
Till on Calvary he died.
Psalm 281a, 6-9
I to the Lord will sing my song, my hymn to the Lord, the God of Israel. (Jgs 5:3b)
Mary’s entire life, devoted to the Word of God made flesh in her Son, Jesus Christ, is a hymn of praise to God sung in melodies of joy, light, sorrow, and eternal glory.
To you, O Lord, I call,
my rock, hear me.
Blessed be the Lord for he has heard
my cry, my appeal.
The Lord is my strength and my shield;
in him my heart trusts.
I was helped, my heart rejoices
and I praise him with my song.
The Lord is the strength of his people,
a fortress where his anointed find salvation.
Save your people; bless Israel your heritage.
Be their shepherd and carry them for ever.
Glory to the Father….
Word of GodJudith 15:9-10
You are the glory of Jerusalem, the surpassing joy of Israel; you are the splendid boast of our people. With your own hand you have done all this; You have done good to Israel, and God is pleased with what you have wrought. May you be blessed by the Lord Almighty forever and ever!
Give her a reward of her labors,
and let her works praise her at the city gates.
Canticle of Mary(Text, back cover A)
I will sing the Lord’s renown. Oh, proclaim the greatness of our God! (cf. Dt 32:3)
My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior
for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant.
From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his Name.
He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.
He has shown the strength of his arm,
he has scattered the proud in their conceit.
He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
and has lifted up the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.
He has come to the help of his servant Israel
for he has remembered his promise of mercy,
the promise he made to our fathers,
to Abraham and his children for ever.
Glory to the Father…
Intercessions
In the name of all people we pray:
Lord, hear your Mother’s plea!
Mother of God, pray for all people of faith:
Mother of our Savior, pray for all who seek to know and love God:
Mother of Sorrows, pray for all who suffer in spirit, mind, or body:
Mother of all the living, pray for all who have crossed the threshold of death to stand before God:
Personal intentions
Our Father….
May we be blessed by the Lord Almighty/ for ever and ever! Amen. (cf. Jdt 15:10)

You are the glory of Jerusalem, you the joy of Israel;
Translated by James Monti
Salve, Regina, mater misericordiae;
vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra, salve.
Ad te clamamus, exsules filii Evae.
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes
in hac lacrimarum valle.
Eia ergo, advocata nostra,
illos tuos misericordes oculos
ad nos converte.
Et Iesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui,
nobis post hoc exsilium ostende.
O clemens, O pia, O dulcis Virgo Maria.
Hail, holy Queen, mother of mercy,
our life, our sweetness, and our hope.
To you do we cry,
poor banished children of Eve.
To you do we send up our sighs,
mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.
Turn then, O most gracious advocate,
your eyes of mercy toward us,
and after this our exile
show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus.
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
Pray for us, O holy Mother of God,
That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Pope Leo in Lourdes makes clear rebuke of euthanasia

Dear brothers and sisters who are sick, I want to tell you that you are not a burden. You are the beating heart of our humanity and a precious treasure for the Church.

Just over two months after France legalized assisted suicide and euthanasia, surrounded by many who are suffering illnesses, some terminal, Pope Leo made clear that "we must reject the temptation to cause death under the guise of false compassion."
"It is impossible to regard causing death as something normal. What is legal is not necessarily moral," he said.
It wasn't his first reference to human dignity and the recent legislation during his trip in France but it was clearest so far.
The human person is “worthy” simply by virtue of existing and of being destined for eternity. Our dignity cannot be measured or debated.
I know that for some of you, because of particular illnesses and, at times, terrible pain, your horizon may appear dark, uncertain and without hope. But no human law should ever make you lose the certainty of your dignity. On the contrary, it is precisely in the name of this inalienable dignity of the human person that we must reject the temptation to cause death under the guise of false compassion. It is impossible to regard causing death as something normal. What is legal is not necessarily moral.
Initially pitched as a “balanced text,” the final law in France is one of the most permissive in the world on this issue. It goes beyond granting access to assisted suicide. In certain cases, it authorizes a doctor or nurse to administer a lethal substance, effectively legalizing euthanasia.
Yet in one of the most famous locations in France, where the sick and suffering arrive from all over the world, the Pope insisted that the sick are not a burden. Speaking directly to them, he exalted their beautiful role in humanity and the Church:
Dear brothers and sisters who are sick, I want to tell you that you are not a burden. You are the beating heart of our humanity and a precious treasure for the Church.
He appealed to health care workers to learn from the atmosphere of Lourdes, where the sick and suffering are shown so much tenderness and care.
"I urge you resolutely to develop structures for palliative care and research," he said.
I appeal to the entire healthcare community to remember the profound meaning of your vocation, which is to care for a suffering person, not to eliminate that person. Yes, dear friends, be passionate servants of life.
Here is a translation of his full address:
~
Dear brothers and sisters,
Dear friends who are sick,
It is a joy for me to be with you here in Lourdes, where, for more than a hundred and fifty years, pilgrims from every corner of the world have come to entrust their physical, psychological and spiritual sufferings to Jesus through Mary. Indeed, fragility is not hidden here; instead it becomes the place of a sacred encounter.
This year, the pastoral theme of the Sanctuary is the greeting of the Archangel Gabriel to Mary, “Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you” (Lk 1:28). This emphasizes the remarkable exchange between the gaze of the Lord’s messenger and Mary’s. In this encounter, the humility and generosity of a young woman allowed God to accomplish his work of salvation. Mary did not keep the Lord for herself, but offered him to the world, saying to each of us, “The Lord is with you.” This truth is the foundation of our dignity as persons. And here, Mary looks upon each one of us as a unique person, as Saint Bernadette testified during the apparitions at the grotto. This maternal gaze reminds us once more that no one is invisible in God’s eyes.
At a time when some societies are inclined to look aside or close their eyes to the dignity of human life, we need first of all “to foster, in ourselves and in others, a contemplative outlook… It is the outlook of those who see life in its deeper meaning, who grasp its utter gratuitousness, its beauty and its invitation to freedom and responsibility. It is the outlook of those who do not presume to take possession of reality but instead accept it as a gift, discovering in all things the reflection of the Creator and seeing in every person his living image (cf. Gen 1:27; Ps 8:5). This outlook… is open to perceiving in the face of every person a call to encounter, dialogue and solidarity” (Saint John Paul II, Encyclical Letter Evangelium Vitae, 83), so that the world may have life.
In the dialogue of the Annunciation, as the Lord gazes upon her, Mary discovers that she is God’s chosen one. Yet, at the heart of this encounter, it is each one of us who discovers that we too are personally called and profoundly destined for the love of God, who is the source of life. The human person is “worthy” simply by virtue of existing and of being destined for eternity. Our dignity cannot be measured or debated.
I know that for some of you, because of particular illnesses and, at times, terrible pain, your horizon may appear dark, uncertain and without hope. But no human law should ever make you lose the certainty of your dignity. On the contrary, it is precisely in the name of this inalienable dignity of the human person that we must reject the temptation to cause death under the guise of false compassion. It is impossible to regard causing death as something normal. What is legal is not necessarily moral.
Here in Lourdes, the city of the sick and of hope, I appeal to the entire healthcare community to remember the profound meaning of your vocation, which is to care for a suffering person, not to eliminate that person. Yes, dear friends, be passionate servants of life. No one ever has the right “on the basis of laboratory algorithms, to decide the life of a given embryo or elderly person! Medicine must never become the servant of programmed death!” (Address to the Members of the Jérôme Lejeune Foundation, 22 June 2026). In this regard, I urge you resolutely to develop structures for palliative care and research. At the same time, I urge you to accompany the sick with the tenderness that we see here in Lourdes, where doctors, nurses, stretcher-bearers, chaplains, pastoral teams serving the sick, and so many others live out their vocation in the service of the dignity of the human person, so that the world may have life. In caring for bodies, you also bind up wounded souls. To you, dear members of the hospitality groups, and to the healthcare workers who devote yourselves to serving your brothers and sisters, I express my deepest gratitude.
Dear brothers and sisters who are sick, I want to tell you that you are not a burden. You are the beating heart of our humanity and a precious treasure for the Church. I carry in my prayers the trials you are going through. My thoughts are also with all those who cannot be here and who, from their homes or hospital rooms, are united with us in this gathering. I entrust all of you to the maternal love of the Mother of the Lord, asking her to obtain for you the consolations of her Son Jesus. May God bless and protect you.
