Diocesan Annual Appeal
becausewearecatholic.org, will begin soon. I am confident we can reach and even surpass our goal of $10,857.
My Jesus,
I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there
and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.
We should pray for the Holy Souls in Purgatory all year. Here are prayers you can pray for them.
