The Lord has done great things for us. May those who sow in tears reap with shouts of joy. He that goes forth weeping, bearing the seed for sowing, shall come home with shouts of joy. Psalm 126:3a, 5, 6a. (Mass, St. Joseph Church, Pearlington, MS, after Hurricane Katrina. Only the steps of the church were left. The Francis House, meeting place of Our Lady of the Pearl, was swept away in the flood waters, with only the slab remaining.)

Almighty God, and You my Lord Jesus Christ, I pray you to enlighten me and to dispel the darkness of my spirit; give me a faith that is without limit, a hope that is ever unfailing, and a love that is universal. Grant, O my God, that I may really know You and that I may be guided in all things according to Your light and in conformity with Your will. (St. Francis of Assisi)

Prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
O most Sacred Heart of Jesus, fountain of every blessing, I adore you, I love you and with true sorrow for my sins, I offer You this poor heart of mine. Make me humble, patient, pure and wholly obedient to Your will. Grant, good Jesus, that I may live in You and for You.
Protect me in the midst of danger, comfort me in my afflictions, give me health of body, assistance in my temporal needs, Your blessing on all that I do, and the grace of a holy death. Amen.
