Prayer for the victims of Typhoon Ondoy and for those who are helping them.

"Heavenly Father, we humbly pray to you as a nation.
We beg You, look upon us with mercy.
For our brothers who lost their lives,
receive them in Your bosom.
For the families they left behind,
console them.
For those who are still missing and those trying to get home to their families,
make their way easy.
For those looking and waiting for missing family and relatives,
steady their faith.
For those still waiting for help,
give them strength.
For those who have lost their homes and property,
give them hope.
For those involved in relief and rescue operations,
make them competent and selfless.
Everything we do for our unfortunate brethren,
we offer to You and Your glory.
All this we pray in the most holy Name of Jesus.
Amen.

First Friday Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus

"The First Friday Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus is based on a promise made by Our Lord Jesus Christ during an Apparition to St. Margaret Mary. This promise was implicitly approved by the Church in the 1920 canonization of St. Margaret Mary. The promise reads:


I promise you in the excessive Mercy of My Heart that My all-powerful Love will grant to all those who communicate on the First Friday in nine consecutive months the Grace of Final Penitence; they shall not die in My disgrace nor without receiving the Sacraments; My Divine Heart shall be their safe refuge in this last moment."
