WE ADORE YOU

We adore You, Lord Jesus Christ,

in all Your churches throughout the world

and we bless You,

because by Your holy cross

You have redeemed the world.

PRAYER BEFORE THE CRUCIFIX

Most High, glorious God,

enlighten the darkness of my heart

and give me true faith,

certain hope and perfect charity,

sense and knowledge, Lord,

that I may carry out

Your holy and true command.

PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS

 

Almighty Father, we confidently come before you, for the grace of vocations to our Order and our Province. Send us genuine young men of ideal courage and dedication to follow us in the path of poverty, simplicity, humility and fraternity, to build up our province as a true brotherhood of love and service.

We recommend our benefactors, parents, relatives and our dear ones to Your care. Be close to them and watch them in all their needs.

We implore You to convert us daily more and more that we may live our Capuchin lives genuinely and faithfully. We place all the friars of our Province and our Order under Your special care. To those who have gone ahead of us, grant eternal bliss. Amen.
