Daily Prayer of the Month (August)
Heavenly Father,
August is dedicated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. We understand the importance of the Blessed Virgin Mary in our salvation by her Assumption and as the Queen of Heaven. How glorious it was for Peter, James and John to have seen Our Lord in his Divinity at his Transfiguration! How wonderful it is for us to read about it! We recall the Passion of St. John the Baptist. We acknowledge the Doctors of the Church: Sts. Liguori, Bernard and Augustine as well as Sts. Clare, Monica, Rose of Lima, Teresa Benedicta of the Cross, Pope Pius X, Maximilian Kolbe and many others. May we continue evangelism in the tradition of St Bartholomew the Apostle. We pray for the end to abortion and your wisdom upon those working to eradicate disease. We ask these in Jesus name
Amen
