A Spiritual Communion

On days you can't go to Mass,
join the Church by making a
"Spiritual Communion."

My Jesus, I believe You are truly present in the most Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all things and I desire to possess You within my soul.

Since I am unable now to receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as being already there, and I unite myself wholly to You; never, never permit me to be seperated from You.

(Prayer of St. Alphonsus Liguori)

Join the friars at St. Bernardine Monastery
in uniting with the Sacrifice
of the Mass by making
a morning offering each day.

 

O Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I offer you my prayers, works, joys, and sufferings of this day in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world. I offer them for all the intentions of Your Sacred Heart: the Salvation of of Souls, reparation for sin, the reunion of all Christians. I offer them for the intentions of our bishops and of all our families, for unborn children endangered by abortion, and in particular for the intentions of the Holy Father.

(from the Apostleship of Prayer)
