Prayer to Saint Andrew
O Glorious Saint Andrew, you were the first to recognize and follow the Lamb of God. With your friend Saint John you remained with Jesus for that first day, for your entire life, and now throughout eternity. As you led your brother Saint Peter to Christ and many
others after him, draw us also to him. Teach us to lead others to Christ solely out of love for him and dedication in his service.
Help us to learn the lesson of the Cross and to carry our daily crosses without complaint so that they may carry us to Jesus. Amen. |

Reflections by Saint Catherine of Genoa
Reflection - The constant thought of purgatory will help us not only to escape its dreadful pains,
but also to avoid the least imperfection which hinders our approach to God. Reflection ~ If men only knew in what
manner Our Lord will recompense in the other world the good we do here, our understanding, our memory and our
will would be occupied only with good works, no matter what it might cost to perform them.

Prayer of Saint Catherine LaBoure
Whenever I go to the chapel, I put myself in the presence of our good Lord, and I say to him, "Lord, I am here. Tell me what you
would have me do." If he gives me some task, I am content and I thank him. If he gives me nothing, I still thank him since I do not
deserve to receive anything more than that. And then, I tell God everything that is in my heart. I tell him about my pains and my joys,
and then I listen. If you listen, God will also speak to you, for with the good Lord, you have to both speak and listen.
God always speaks to you when you approach him plainly and simply. |
