“You know what has happened all over Judea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John preached, how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power.

He went about doing good and healing all those oppressed by the devil,
for God was with him.

We are witnesses of all that he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem.

They put him to death by hanging him on a tree.

This man God raised on the third day and granted that he be visible,
not to all the people, but to us, the witnesses chosen by God in advance, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.

He commissioned us to preach to the people and testify that he is the one appointed by God as judge of the living and the dead. To him all the prophets bear witness, that everyone who believes in him will receive forgiveness of sins through his name.”

~ Acts 10:34a, 37-43

Prayers

Anima Christi

Soul of Christ, sanctify me.
Body of Christ, save me.
Blood of Christ, inebriate me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me.
Passion of Christ, strengthen me.
O good Jesus, hear me.
Within Thy wounds, hide me.
Suffer me not to be separated from Thee.
From the malicious enemy, defend me.
In the hour of my death, call me.
And bid me come unto Thee.
That I may praise Thee with Thy saints
and with Thy angels forever and ever. Amen.

 

Prayer of St. Andrew

O GOOD CROSS,
Made beautiful by the body of the Lord,
Long have I desired thee,
Ardently have I loved thee,
Unceasingly have I sought thee,
And now thou art ready for my eager soul.
Receive me from among men
And restore me to my Master,
So that He, who redeemed me through thee,
Shalt receive me through thee.

Amen.

 

DEAR LORD JESUS, by Your Passion and Resurrection,
You brought life to the world.
But the glory of the Resurrection
came only after the sufferings of the Passion.

You laid down Your life willingly and gave up everything for us.
Your body was broken and fastened to a Cross,
Your clothing became the prize of soldiers, Your blood ebbed slowly but surely away, and Your Mother was entrusted to the beloved disciple.

Stretched out on the Cross,
deprived of all earthly possessions
and human aid,
You cried out to Your Father that the end had come.
You had accomplished the work given You, and You committed into His hands,
as a perfect gift, the little life that remained to You.

Lord, teach me to accept all afflictions after the example You have given.
Let me place my death in Yours
and my weakness in Your abandonment,
Take hold of me with Your love,
that same foolish love that knew no limits,
and let me offer myself to the Father with You
so that I may rise with You to eternal life.
