Prayer of Thanksgiving
O God, of Whose mercies there is no number, and of
Whose goodness the treasure is infinite; we render
thanks to Your most gracious majesty for the gifts
You have bestowed upon us, evermore beseeching
Your clemency, that as You grant the petitions of
them that ask You. You will never forsake them, but
will prepare them for the reward to come. Through
Christ our Lord.
Amen.

beings themselves, who are discarded as

unnecessary. For example, it is frightful even to
think there are children, victims of abortion, who
will never see the light of day; children being used
as soldiers, abused and killed in armed conflicts;
and children being bought and sold in that terrible
form of modern slavery which is human trafficking,
which is a crime against humanity.

Mass Intentions
As Catholics, we have a long tradition of having Masses celebrated for those we wish to offer up in prayer.
The Mass is the ultimate form of prayer, and each Mass is celebrated for an intention. We ask $10.00 per
mass intention.
Please consider having Masses celebrated for family and friends on special occasions and anniversaries, as
well as those who are in need of prayers. Masses are also encouraged in memory of those loved ones who
have died, especially on the anniversaries of their deaths. Contact Fr. Cory for more information!
