Pope’s Intention July 2023

For a Eucharistic life. We pray that Catholics may place the celebration of the Eucharist at the heart of their lives, transforming human relationships in a very deep way and opening to the encounter with God and all their brothers and sisters.

Morning prayer

God, our Father, I offer You my day. I offer You my prayers, thoughts, words, actions, joys and sufferings, in union with Your Son Jesus’ Heart, who continues to offer Himself in the Eucharist for the salvation of the world. May the Holy Spirit, who guided Jesus, be my guide and my strength today so that I may witness to Your love. With Mary, the mother of our Lord and of the Church, I pray especially for this month’s intention as proposed by the Pope.

I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning.
Psalm 59:16

You sweep us away; we are like a dream, like grass that is renewed in the morning; in the morning it flourishes and is renewed; in the evening it fades and withers.

Psalm 90 5-6

Night prayer

Lord, thank you for our home and shelter; for a place to sleep and food to eat. Help us rest well, give us peaceful dreams, and send your angels around our home to protect us throughout the night. Teach us to trust you. With Mother Mary we pray this night for everyone we have met this day.
Amen.
