The prayer that has captured the hearts of the faithful on account of its simplicity and efficacy is the pious
invocation : Jesus I trust in You!"
This prayer when said meaningfully is a firm affirmation that Jesus is the Lord and Saviour of our lives. It is
a simple but profound act of abandonment and trust in Jesus' goodness and mercy and a plea of hope in all
our necessities. In the heart of Jesus, those anguished by life's sorrows find peace; those afflicted by suffering
and illness find relief; those who feel constricted by uncertainty and anguish feel joy, because Christ's heart is
filled to overflowing with consolation and love for those who turn to It with trust. Great are the promises of our Lord to those who use this Divine Mercy invocation as a reminder of his mercy and our obligation to be merciful, just as Our Father in heaven is merciful to each and everyone of us.
General Prayers

this day by your power, that they may not fall into sin but that all our words, thoughts and
deeds may always proceed and be directed toward that which is just in your sight. Amen.
Evening Prayer
O my God, at the end of this day I thank you most heartily for all the graces I have
received from you. I am sorry that I have not made a better use of them. I am sorry for all
the sins that I have committed against you. Forgive me ,O my God, and graciously protect me
this night. Blessed Virgin Mary , my dear heavenly mother, take me under your protection.
St. Joseph, my dear Guardian Angel, and you all saints of God, pray for me.Sweet Jesus ,
have pity on all poor sinners, and save them from hell. Have mercy on the suffering souls

Look down upon me, good and gentle Jesus, while before your face I humbly kneel, and
with a burning soul I pray and beseech you to fix deep in my heart lively sentiments of faith,
hope and charity, true contrition for my sins, and a firm purpose of amendments, while I contemplate
with great love and tender pity your five wounds, pondering over them within me, calling to mind the
words which David, your prophet, said of you, my dear Jesus : " They have pierced my hands and my
feet; they have numbered all my bones." ( Ps 21: 17-18 )
Prayer for Religious Vocations
Father , you call all who believe in you to grow perfect love by following in the footsteps of Christ
your Son. May those whom you have chosen to serve you as religious provide by their way a
convincing sign of your kingdom for the Church and the whole world. Amen.
Prayer for Priests
O my most Sweet Jesus, O Jesus, Eternal High Priest, keep your Priests in the shelter of
your Sacred Heart, where no one can hurt them. Keep their anointed hands unsullied,
which daily handle your Sacred Body. Keep pure the lips which are reddened with your
Precious Blood. Keep pure and unworldly their hearts which are sealed with the sublime
token of your glorious priesthood. Cause them to grow in love and loyalty to you and
protect them from the contamination of the world. With their power of transforming bread
and wine, give them the power of transforming hearts. Bless their work with rich fruit and
grant them one day the crown of eternal life. Amen.
St. Gertrude's Prayer for the Souls in Purgatory
Eternal Father, I offer you the Most Precious Blood of your Divine Son, Jesus, in union
with the Masses said throughout the world today, for all the Holy Souls in purgatory, for
sinners everywhere, for sinners in the Universal Church, those in my own home and
within my family. Amen.
