The Best Catholic.candles-1072228_960_720

We encourage everyone to post your Daily Prayer Petitions in the Comments section below.  Together we pray as one Catholic Family for our intentions and the intentions of the Pope.  Let us also pray for the suffering souls in Purgatory.

Let us pray to Christ, the source of hope for all who know his name:
Lord, have mercy.

Christ, our frail humanity is prone to fall,
— strengthen us through your help.
Lord, have mercy.

Left to itself, our nature is inclined to sin,
— let your love always restore it to grace.
Lord, have mercy.

Lord, sin offends you, repentance pleases you,
— do not punish us in your wrath even when we have sinned.
Lord, have mercy.

You forgave the penitent woman, and placed the wandering sheep on your shoulders,
— do not deprive us of your mercy.
Lord, have mercy.

By your death on the cross you opened the gates of heaven,
— admit into your kingdom all who hoped in you.
Lord, have mercy.
