Tonight’s Rosary will include the 5 Special Intentions from Pope St. John Paul II for use, originally, with the Divine Mercy Chaplet, to cultivate a culture of life & end the culture of death.
Lord, you accepted the perfect sacrifice of your Son upon the cross. Hear us during times of trouble and protect us by the power of his name, that we who share his struggle on earth may merit a share in his victory.
What good is it to profess faith w/o practicing it? Such faith has no power to save one, has it? So it is with the faith that does nothing in practice. It is thoroughly lifeless. Show me faith w/o works, & I will show you the faith that underlies my works!
The Rosary proper begins at the top of the hour. I hope you’ll join me.
You’re invited to add your intentions to the thread by replying to this tweet (or any of them, really).
God bless you!
In the Name of the Father,
& of the Son,
& of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Holy Family, pray for us!

St Polycarp, pray for us!
Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, you have deigned to come to Fatima to reveal to the three shepherd children there the treasures of grace hidden…
(There’s a place in this prayer for your personal prayer intention.)
(For those who don’t believe, we pray…)
I believe in God,
the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
And in Jesus Christ,
His only Son, our Lord…
For the Holy Father
Our Father Who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy Name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us…
For an increase of Faith, Hope, & Charity in our souls & our world (3x)

As it was in the beginning,
is now, and ever shall be,
world without end. Amen.
