I am starting the NOVENA of our Holy Mothers Assumption for the Poor Souls in Purgatory. If any of you would like to join me....I will post the daily novena here. Lets Empty Purgatory!! Day 1 Immaculate Virgin, Mother of Jesus and our Mother, we believe in your triumphant assumption into heaven where the angels and saints acclaim you as Queen of Heaven and earth. We join them in praising you and bless the Lord who raised you above all creatures. With them we honor you. We are confident that you watch over our daily lives and we ask that you intercede for us now. (mention your request) We are comforted by our faith in the coming Resurrection and we look to you for prayers and comfort. After this earthly life, show us Jesus, the blest fruit of your womb, O kind, O loving, O sweet virgin Mary. O Queen Assumed into Heaven, pray for us. Amen.
My Attention Deficit Disorder(a gift from God) makes it nearly impossible for me to complete a Novena. But I'll try. St. Gertrude is my patron of ADD. She was always flitting about from one thing to another, and the sisters complained about it. But the Lord told one of them she was so in tune with God's will that she could set one thing down in an instant to follow His will in another direction.
Hi guys!! Sorry....I probably should have posted more of the novena days but I had a busy weekend with company and I went to a women's conference a heard Father Calloway speak. It was such a wonderful day ...with 3 guest speakers tat were amazing. God is great! Such healing and mercy. So let's pick up where I left off..... DAY 5 O merciful and loving Mother, may your glorious beauty fill our hearts with a distaste for earthly things and an ardent longing for the joys of Heaven. May your merciful eyes glance down upon our struggles and our weakness in this vale of tears. Hear then loving Mother, our request and plead to Jesus for us. (mention your request) Crown us with the pure robe of innocence and grace here, and with immortality and glory in Heaven. O Queen Assumed into Heaven, pray for us. Amen. DAY 5
