I am an Anglican bishop and will be retiring from ministry at the end of the summer and am compelled to enter the Roman Catholic Church. Pray for me as I explore the possibility of coming in through the Anglican Ordinariate. If that does not come about I will be converting as a layman and will see what God has in store.
Beloved Lord, what a huge decision for this good man.
Only You know all that lies beneath this decision in his life and the enormous change to his life.
Please surround and fill him with Your light and love and truth as he considers and undergoes this huge change in his life.
Let all that is Your holy will be fulfilled in and through his life.
***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,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among 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 death.
Ah, the army of the Lord is growing! I hope that you are able to enter the Church as one of Jesus’ “chosen souls”.
Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself.
O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of Mercy for us, I trust in You!
O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of Mercy for us, I trust in You!
O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of Mercy for us, I trust in You!
Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among 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.
