July 31, 2016-- St. Luke Catholic Church, Nicholasville, KY Page 2 Mercy Moments - Extraordinary Jubilee Year of Mercy, Dec. 8, 2015 to Nov. 20, 2016. In the previous 14 weeks in this column, we reviewed the seven corporal works of mercy and the seven spiritual works of mercy, and shared examples of how we can be examples of God’s mercy to others by exercising these works of mercy. Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC, reminds us that at the onset of the Jubilee Year of Mercy Pope Francis said that the Holy Spirit is speaking to the Church about this present time in history being the time where God wants to pour out a superabundance of merciful love upon suffering humanity. And humanity is certainly suffering today, as all around the world we see examples of human atrocities, and human beings seem to increasingly inflict pain and tragedy upon other peoples. Our world is in desperate need of God’s mercy! And we, each of us, can be the vehicle to extend this mercy, God’s mercy, to others by allowing Him to work through us. It’s time for us to help save the world through prayer and works of mercy. The message of St. Faustina Kowlaska, the great apostle of mercy, is inspiring many people to turn to the very heart of Catholic spirituality, the very heart of the Gospel - namely, God’s mercy for sinners. St. John Paul II exhorts us to directly challenge the evils that afflict modern humanity with a most powerful weapon - Gods’ merciful love. We can exercise these corporal and spiritual works of mercy, and through them, bring God into the lives of those who are suffering, to offer them a bright light shining from an otherwise bleak horizon. Let’s answer God’s call! Gaitley, Fr. Michael, MIC. “Divine Mercy Can Save the World”. Columbia. April, 2016. pgs. 20-21. Diocesan News Divorced. Catholic. Now What?

Act of Contrition--O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended you, and I detest all my sins because I dread the loss of heaven and the pains of hell; but most of all because they offend you, my God, who are all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve with the help of your grace to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen. PRAYER OF ST. GERTRUDE THE GREAT--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. Prayer for the Recently Deceased—Incline Your ear, O Lord, to our prayers, in which we humbly entreat Your mercy. Bring to a place of peace and light the soul of Your servant, (NAME), which You have summoned to go forth from this world, and bid him to be numbered in the fellowship of Your saints. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. Prayer for Those Missing Mass—Almighty and most merciful God, Who wills not the death of a sinner, but that he be converted and live, hear our prayers for those who, of their own free will, from carelessness or indifference, are not here today to worship You in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Grant them, we beseech You, the light to see how empty life is without You, a right understanding of their obligation to adore You, and the courage to return to their Father’s House. And to us here present, O God of Love and Tenderness, grant a greater appreciation of the Mass and an apostolic spirit to work and pray for those whose hearts are restless until they find their rest in Thee. Through Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen. (Follow with an Our Father, Hail Mary, and Glory be to the Father.) Vocation Prayer--Heavenly Father, You are the one who made us, and you know us better than we know ourselves. Call forth your servants, O Lord, and teach us to recognize your voice. Son of god, you gave your life for all people, and you invite us to share in your mission. Guide us with your love, dear Jesus, and help us to show it to others. Holy Spirit, you are present within us, and you lend us the strength to live out our calling. Remain with us always, our Helper, and give us the courage to say, “Yes.” Hail Mary . . . . Prayer to End Abortion--Lord God, I thank you today for the gift of my life, And for the lives of all my brothers and sisters. I know there is nothing that destroys more life than abortion, Yet I rejoice that you have conquered death by the Resurrection of Your Son. I am ready to do my part in ending abortion. Today I commit myself. Never to be silent, Never to be passive, Never to be forgetful of the unborn. I commit myself to be active in the pro-life movement, And never to stop defending life Until all my brothers and sisters are protected, And our nation once again becomes A nation with liberty and justice Not just for some, but for all, Through Christ our Lord. Amen!
