OUR FATHER

Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us,
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Amen.



HAIL MARY


Hail Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee;
blessed art thou amongst women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.



PRAYER OF ST IGNATIUS OF LOYOLA


Take, O Lord, and receive my entire liberty, my memory, my understanding and my whole will. All that I am and all that I possess You have given me: I surrender it all to You to be disposed of according to Your will. Give me only Your love and Your grace; with these I will be rich enough, and will desire nothing more. Amen.


PRAYER OF BLESSED MARCEL CALLO, 
(member of the young working class christian movement, JOC, died in Mauthausen March 19th 1945)

Oh Christ, I want to become more and more, within the young working class, a guide, a pure and joyful courageous militant. With an overwhelming loving heart for my brothers, I want to reach the young workers. En you Jesus, I want to live. With you I want to pray. For you I want to give up my strength and all of my time in all the circumstances of my life. (my translation from catalan)



THE FOURFOLD FRANCISCAN BLESSING


May God bless you with discomfort. Discomfort at easy answers, half truths, and superficial relationships, so that you may live deep within your heart.

May God bless you with anger. Anger at injustice, oppression and exploitation of people, so that you may work for justice, freedom and peace.

May God bless you with tears. Tears to shed for those who suffer from pain, rejection, starvation and war, so that you may reach out your hand to comfort them and turn their pain into joy.

May God bless you with foolishness. Enough foolishness to believe that you can make a difference in this world, so that you can do what others claim cannot be done.
