Consecration Prayer for Peace
I consecrate Russia and the Ukraine to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
I further consecrate the priests, the Church and the world to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary.
I do this in the name of Jesus in as far as I am able, united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, praying to the Father, in the Holy Spirit, with all the angels and saints and the souls in purgatory through the powerful intercession of Mary, Queen of Peace. Amen.
I further consecrate myself, all members of my family and ask the Holy Spirit to fill us. I spread the Blood of Jesus on all above, I cast the devil into hell away from all of us and consecrate all persons, in as far as I am able, to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart.
Prayer for Grace for Election and our Country
Dear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families, the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our president and leaders. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.

December 10, 2023Carrying the Cross
So many sufferings can
come our way, but we can
identify with Jesus carrying
the cross.
Can you even imagine a
little what Jesus went
through?
Love gives for the good of
the other. Mary, our Mother,
teaches us selflessness. How
she must have suffered
during the carrying of the
cross and Jesus’ death and
after the crucifixion.
We can meditate on the
mysteries of the rosary.
Jesus gave His all. No
person ever suffered as
much as Jesus.
Jesus taught us to love.
Jesus loved us so much to
suffer as He did for our sins.
It’s to our advantage to not
know the sufferings in our
entire life to come.
Jesus knew everybody’s
sins and how some would
use their free will given by
God to
rebel against God and hurt
others.
Jesus told Fr. Carter to start
these prayer chapters,
praying for the priests, the
Church and the world.
Pray with us the prayers
Jesus gave Fr. Carter for
the renewal of the Church
and the world.
Help us spread the prayers.
We need love. God is love.
We are sinners, we need to
be accountable and
responsible when we sin.
Mary said at Fatima to
repent.
The devil wants souls to be
lost.
We need to pray.
With love in the Hearts of
Jesus and Mary Amen
God is with us.
Truly present in the Eucharist.
Amen.
Jesus’ body was beaten for
our sins. He gave His Blood.
His flesh was torn, Jesus
didn’t give in, He fell 3 times
under the weight of the cross.
Jesus’ anguish was so great,
He sweat blood in the Garden.
Jesus gave the last beat of
His Heart, the last drop of
His blood.
Jesus loved.
Jesus did not hold back.
Through His pierced Heart,
the Church was born, what
flowed out was blood and
water: water for baptism,
Blood for the Eucharist.John 19: 31-37
The pierced Christ
It was the Day of Preparation, and to avoid the bodies’ remaining on the cross during the Sabbath—since that Sabbath was a day of special solemnity—the Jews asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies taken away. Consequently the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with him and then of the other. When they came to Jesus, they saw he was already dead, and so instead of breaking his legs one of the soldiers pierced his side with a lance; and immediately there came out blood and water. This is the evidence of one who saw it—true evidence, and he knows that what he says is true—and he gives it so that you may believe as well. Because all this happened to fulfil the words of scripture:
Not one bone of his will be broken;
and again, in another place scripture says:
They will look to the one
whom they have pierced.
R. You have a free will to
obey and love God.
What you do to others,
you do to Jesus.
God gives us a free will,
how awful to use it to hurt
others,
if you have anger in your
heart and want to hurt
others.
Dear Jesus, I place these
struggles at the foot of Your
cross.
I offer up everything today
united to the Mass,
I spread the Blood of Jesus
Cast the devil into hell
Ask for a special coming of
the Holy Spirit
and consecrate all hearts to
the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
Amen.
Saint Michael help us, free
us from all evil.
We ask for protection from
the snares of the devil.
Amen.
Give us the grace we need
most, Oh Lord.
We thank You for all Your
gifts to us.
Come Holy Spirit and
enlighten us, help us to
know the Father’s will.
Dear Father we ask this in
the name of Jesus.
Dear Father hear our prayer.
Help us to be molded more
and more in the image of
God.
Holy Spirit, fill us.
We give our hearts to the
Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
We love You: God, Father,
Son, and Holy Spirit.
Please dwell abundantly in
our graced, baptized soul.
Jesus is our model.
The Father said: “This is My
beloved Son in whom I am
well pleased, listen to Him.”
Jesus is the way, the truth
and the life.
Love is forgiving.
Love is being humble.
Love tells the truth.
Love is a peacemaker.
Matthew 22: 36-40
‘Master, which is the greatest commandment of the Law?’ Jesus said to him, ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second resembles it: You must love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang the whole Law, and the Prophets too.’
R. Whatever we do to others, we do to
Jesus.
God is the Almighty God.
God must be first.
Glorious Mysteries
The Resurrection
1. Philippians 2:5-8
Make your own the mind of Christ Jesus:
Who, being in the form of God,
did not count equality with God
something to be grasped.But he emptied himself,
taking the form of a slave,
becoming as human beings are;
and being in every way
like a human being,
he was humbler yet,
even to accepting death,
death on a cross.
2. Hebrews 1:1-2

no darkness.
