Prayer warriors,

On Monday afternoon, 19th September, I shall be going on an 8 day individual guided retreat, a silent retreat. It is at a Jesuit Spirituality Centre.

Please pray for me that I may find peace there and that I can be open to Gods word.
Pray too that I may come back a better Catholic Christian.

I shall pray for all of you.

Please pray too for my beloved wife and daughter whilst I am away.

Thank you in advance

God bless you

Graham
 
Heavenly Father, please look on Graham’s sincere dedication to growing deeper in Your Spirit and to develop more profoundly as the person who You created him to be.
Please send Your Holy Spirit to continually guide his spiritual direction as he undertakes this retreat, but also guide his entire life and his relationships with others, especially his wife and child.

*“This…is what I pray before the Father from whom every family, whether spiritual or natural, takes its name: Out of His infinite glory, may He give you the power through His Spirit for your hidden self to grow strong, so that Christ may live in your hearts through faith, and then, planted in love and built on love, you will with all the saints have strength to grasp the breadth and the length, the height and the depth; until, knowing the love of Christ, which is beyond all knowledge, you are filled with the utter fullness of God.” *
“Glory be to Him whose power, working in us, can do infinitely more than we can ask or imagine; glory be to Him from generation to generation in the Church and in Christ Jesus for ever and ever. Amen.” [Ephesians 3: 14-21]
 
If you are doing the Spiritual Exercises, they are a life changing experience. Pay particular attention on the last day, to be able to carry that spirit forward into your life. And be prepared to set your own piece of the world on fire with the love of God!

Praying for your success in this and in all things. AMDG.
 
Lord, please help Graham to be receptive to your voice and fill him with wisdom and your peace. May he be transformed by his eight days on retreat and come home the best Catholic he possibly can be. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer.
 
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.
 
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.

is now,

world without end.
