                "Be Aware That Your Life Is Short And Passing"

“Dear Children!

     Pray in this time of grace and seek the intercession of all the saints who are already in the light.  From day to day may they be an example and encouragement to you on the way of your conversion.  Little children, be aware that your life is short and passing.  Therefore, yearn for eternity and keep preparing your hearts in prayer.  I am with you and intercede before my Son for each of you, especially for those who have consecrated themselves to me and to my Son.

Opening Prayer

Dearest Mother, some are willing to pray and make sacrifices for sinners. Indeed, you have as many as there are in this cell. Increase our number and cause us to develop a deeper, more spiritual understanding to respond to your appeal for prayer and sarifice for sinners. By increasing our cell, spreading and dividing, may the overwhelming force of the Sacrifice of Calvary now be applied to the sins of the world so that we will see the fulfillment of your promise..."An Era of Peace will be concealed to mankind."

Eucharistic Prayer

Most Holy Trinity, I adore you. My God, My God, I love you in the Most Blessed Sacrament.

The Passion Prayer

O Jesus, beloved and most desirable King, remember the grief that You suffered, when naked and like a criminal You were fastened and raised on the Cross, when all Your relatives and friends abandoned You, except Your beloved mother, who remained close to You during Your agony and whom You did entrust to Your Disciple when You said to Mary: "Woman, behold your Son" and to St. John: "Son behold your Mother!"I beg of You, O my Savior, by the Sword of Sorrow which pierced the soul of Your Holy Mother, to have compassion on me, in all my affliction and tribulation, both corporal and spiritual, and to assist me in all my trials, and especially at the hour of my death, Amen.

Sacrifice Prayer

O My Jesus, it is for love of You, in reparation for the offenses committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and for the conversion of poor sinners.

HOLY VIRGIN MARY PRAYER

Mother of God and our Mother, accept this Holy Rosary which I offer you, to show my love for you, and my firm confidence in your powerful intercession. I offer it as an act of faith in the Mysteries of the Incarnation and the Redemption, as an act of thanksgiving to God for all His love for me and all mankind, as an act of atonement for the sins of the world, especially my own, and as an act of petition to God through your intercession for all the needs of God's people on earth, but especially this earnest request...

(Here offer the intentions held in the silence of your heart)

Our Lady of Fatima...Pray for us.  Jesus, Mary and Joseph...Hear our Prayer.  Mother Cabrini...Pray for us

Let us Pray...O God, whose only begotten Son, by His life, death and resurrection, has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life, grant, we beseech Thee, that by mediating upon these mysteries of the Most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise, through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

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 your wounds, hide me; Seperated from you, let me never be; From the evil one, protect me; At the hour of my death, call me; And close to you, bid me; That within Your saints, I may be, praising You forever and ever. Amen.

THE MEMORARE...Remember O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help or sought your intercession, was left unaided. Inspired by your confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you I come, before you I stand sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate! despise not my petitions, but in your mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
