Prayer to the Holy Family 

of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph

O Holy Family of Nazareth,
Jesus, Mary, and Joseph,
you are the model of love, faith, and unity.
In your home, peace and holiness reigned;
teach us to cherish one another with the same tenderness and patience.

Jesus, Son of God and Son of Mary,
fill our hearts with your divine love.
Mary, Mother most pure,
guide us in humility and obedience to God’s will.
Joseph, faithful protector,
watch over our families and keep us safe from harm.

May our homes be places of prayer,
charity, and forgiveness,
where Christ is always welcomed and honoured.

Holy Family, bless and protect all families,
and lead us one day to the eternal home
where we shall rejoice together forever.

Amen.

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen

Let us pray

O Jesus I Surrender myself to You, You take over. Amen

The Holy Rosary

Our Blessed Mother explained to us what would happen in the World and in the Church if people continued to turn from God. Sadly we can now see this all around us in the Church and in the World. One of the things she asked us to do was to say the Rosary everyday. 

Please find a few minutes today to fulfil her request.

Surrender to Jesus

Surrender is a word that can feel heavy, especially in a world that glorifies self-reliance and control. Yet, when it  comes to our relationship with God, surrender is not about giving up; it’s about giving in—to His love, His plans, and His promises. 

Trusting God in daily surrender is a beautiful yet challenging act of faith.

Prayer to St Michael

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in our hour of conflict. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; And do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen.

Personal Prayer to Jesus

Lord Jesus I accept you as my personal Saviour. 

From this moment on may I open my heart to you and trust that the Holy Spirit will fill this heart with your love so that I can in all sincerity worship God our Father above all things and love my neighbour as myself.

For me alone this will be extremely difficult. In my human nature I am under constant attack from Satan but I know that if I trust You, You will provide me with whatever graces I need  to withstand such evil attacks.

I know that with Your love it is truly possible to have heaven here on earth.

For what is Heaven except to be in the presence of God.

With Your help I can overcome my human limitations, my needless worries, and my needless concerns. 

Help me accept Your holy living Word as proclaimed in the bible and at every Mass and through the Gospel realise that my childish love reflects Your words  - 

'Unless you become like little children you shall not enter the Kingdom of Heaven'.

Jesus please grant that when my time comes to meet You, You will not be a stranger but a friend.

I can ask for nothing more.

Amen.
