Prayer for India (Sunday, May 2 - May 10, 2021)

      Novena to St. Teresa of Calcutta for India     

Let us ask St. Teresa of Calcutta for her intercession to aid those who are suffering and dying from COVID-19.  Novena prayers will be posted on social media beginning Sunday, May 2, 2021. 

You can also pray daily, Mother Teresa's "Express Novena" which consists of praying nine consecutive "The Memorare"

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help or sought thy intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.

Let us assist our sisters and brothers in India who are greatly suffering from the pandemic. May we join St. Teresa of Calcutta, Blessed Mother, and St. Joseph in our prayers for them.

Jesus, the Light to Be Lit

Mother Teresa once assured her followers, “Mother is here to help you, guide you, lead you to Jesus. Time is coming closer when Mother also has to go to God. Then Mother will be able to help each one of you more, guide you more, and obtain more graces for you.” Mother Teresa’s mission to guide us to Jesus’s light and to help each of us “be His light” still continues. What she wrote years ago is realized even more effectively today as she intercedes for us from Heaven: “I pray that each one of you be holy, and so spread His love everywhere you go. Light His Light of truth in every person’s life, so that God can continue loving the world through you and me.”
