Dearest people,

I wanna be a Catholic. Pray that I’ll have a chance to meet a priest & tell him my intention. And that I wont be too nervous & afraid when the chance has come for me to follow the RCIA or whatever the name is in Indonesian 🙂

Thank you all.
 
Believe me, you’ll fit in. When I went through RCIA, our members turned into a tight-knit group. You’ probably always miss that feeling. We always need new people in the church! 😃

Prayer of Welcome

Lord, our God, source of all life,
you reveal yourself in the depths of our being
drawing us to share in your life and love.
Bless each of us as we respond to your Spirit’s
invitation to open wide the doors to Christ.
Make the doors of our hearts,
our homes and communities
wide enough to receive
all who need human love and fellowship,
narrow enough to shut out all envy,
prejudice and pride.
Let us hasten to welcome the stranger,
and so welcome your Son.
We make this prayer in his name,
Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Amen.

(Catholic Diocese of Wallongong)

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.

Welcome! Just contact your nearest Parish. They will be happy to talk to you!
 
Praying that the Lord may continue to bless you and guide you on your journey of Faith.

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
 
O Loving Jesus, meek Lamb of God, I a miserable sinner, salute and worship the most Sacred Wound of Thy Shoulder on which Thou didst bear Thy heavy Cross, which so tore Thy Flesh and laid bare Thy Bones as to inflict on Thee an anguish greater than any other Wound of Thy Most Blessed Body. I adore Thee, O Jesus most sorrowful; I praise and glorify Thee and give Thee thanks for this most sacred and painful Wound, beseeching Thee by that exceeding pain and by the crushing burden of Thy heavy Cross to be merciful to me, a sinner, to forgive me all my mortal and venial sins, and to lead me on towards Heaven along the Way of Thy Cross.

Amen.

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Welcome! Praying for you…

Prayer for the Gifts of the Holy Spirit

O Spirit of Wisdom, preside over all my thoughts, words and actions, from this hour until the moment of my death. Spirit of Understanding, enlighten and teach me.

Heavenly Spirit, make me persevere in the service of God, and enable me to act on all occasions with goodness and kindness, charity and joy, with long-suffering, mildness and fidelity.

Jesus tells us if we knock the door will open. Ask and it shall be ours. Seek and we will find. God has spoken to you. The next move is yours and yours alone. Trust in Him and today take an action (due to free will we MUST choose and ACT) to bring your Faith Journey where you feel it should take you. Call the nearest Catholic church and tell them you would like to talk to a priest about investigating the Catholic Faith. When you do this you have made your first choice to follow God… He will Bless you and Heaven will rejoice… After you make the first step.

Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you as you dial the phone. God has special plans for you. Praying that you do not delay in responding to His calling. Remember, the Apostles dropped everything to follow him… Do not give it a second thought. Trust God completely and follow the direction He has led you. Do it today… nothing says we have a tomorrow… I am praying for you.
 
Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen.
