Servant of God Elisabeth Leseur Novena April 24 – May 2

Servant of God Elisabeth Leseur
Novena



God, our Father, you fortified Your servant Elisabeth with admirable prudence and a profound interior life, so that she could bear witness to Christ before her husband and in the unbelieving world that surrounded her. You gave her great meekness, making her capable of accepting her sufferings as an agreeable prayer to you.


We thank you, Father, for the gifts that You gave her, for the example she has given to the women of today, and for the benefits obtained in our family through her intercession.


We confidently beseech you that through her intercession you grant us the grace of… (Ask for the grace desired.)


We also ask that, if it be Your will, the Church may recognize the holiness of Elisabeth’s life, for the glory of the Holy Trinity.


We ask this through Christ our Lod.

Amen.

Unite ALL Your Sufferings as a Gift to the Christ Child

Christ is Born….
Without Jesus you cannot carry your own cross, it is only through Him, with Him, and in Him that you are able to carry your own cross and unite it to Him. This is grace, remain close to HIM.

Reflection received on this 3rd day of Christmas after watching “The Song of Bernadette”. December 27, 2021

Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception

Happy Solemnity (Eve) of the Immaculate Conception… for she was born without sin to be pure, and Holy in order to carry the Christ child, the son of God, Emmanuel (God is with us).


Immaculate Mary pray for us, you who were kept pure and undefiled. We place our trust in you, please be a mother to us and guide us to your son Jesus. AMEN

Watch “Embrace Our Sacrifices – Sep 12 – Homily – Fr Dominic” on YouTube

I found myself praying the Chaplet of Hannah’s Tears on Saturday and actually reflecting on my inability to embrace my cross ✝ . Without those times of prayer, in times of suffering don’t forget to quiet yourself in prayer with Christ. He will prepare you and me as Father has reiterated in the homily above. God bless you today as we unite our ✝ with the Cross of Christ Jesus.

In the Hearts of the Holy Family,

Therese
