Prayer of the Week

Standing Before You

I stand before you in faith, O God. I go forward in hope. Poor and a beggar, I want only our love. O Fire, O Love, come into us. Be our leader and our light. Be the fire that consumes and burns in the repentant sinner. Be our paraclete, our comforter, our advocate and helper in all things for which we pray. Show us what we believe. Grant what we hope for. And make our face shine like the face of God. Amen.

Daily Prayer

Mary, a dwelling of God
God makes His dwelling with us through Jesus and Mary.

Lord God, you watch over all our ways. Keep us in your favor every day, for all your ways are calm and all your paths are peace. Let us offer thanksgiving for the precious gift of life which we have received from you. Mary, our mother, you found favor with God when you were young. Guide us, your children, always to your Son so we can remain in his love and mercy, now and always. Amen.

Matthew 13:44-46

Jesus said to his disciples: “The Kingdom of heaven is like a treasure buried in a field, which a person finds and hides again, and out of joy goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
Again, the Kingdom of heaven is like a merchant searching for fine pearls.
When he finds a pearl of great price, he goes and sells all that he has and buys it.”
