PRAYERS 

Daily  Offering

Oh Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of  Mary, I offer you my prayers, works, joys and sufferings of this day, in union with the  Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world. I offer them for all the intentions of your Sacred Heart; the salvation of souls, reparation for sins, and the reunion of all Christians.

I offer them for the  intentions of  our  Bishops  and  of  all  Apostolate of  Prayer, and in particular  for those  recommended  by  our Holy Father for this month, and the glorification of your Servant, Brother Policarpo.

LORD’S PRAYER

Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy Kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

HAIL MARY

Hail Mary, full of grace, The Lord is with thee; 

blessed art thou among women and

blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and

at the hour of our death.

Amen.
