PRAYER TO THE DIVINE MERCY

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,
Amen.
You expired, Jesus, but the source of life gushed forth for souls, and
the ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world.
O fountain of life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelops the whole
world and empty Yourself out upon us.
O blood and water which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a
fountain of mercy for us, I trust in You! (3x)
Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be
Thy name;
Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against
us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
Hail Mary
full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou among women
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners now
and at the hour of our death Amen.
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord. He was conceived
by the power of the Holy Spirit, and born of the Virgin Mary,
He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was
buried.
He descended to the dead.
On the third day He rose again.
He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the
Father.
He will come again to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic Church,

the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of
the body, and the life everlasting.
Amen.

Concluding prayer:
Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless,

look kindly upon us, and increase Your mercy in us, that in difficult
moments, we might not despair, nor become despondent, but with
great confidence, submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is love
and mercy itself. Amen

ACT OF ENTRUSTMENT TO THE DIVINE MERCY
O Most Merciful Jesus, Your goodness is infinite, and the treasures of
Your grace is inexhaustible.
I trust boundlessly in Your mercy, which is above all Your works. I
consecrate myself to You completely and unreservedly, so as to live
and strive for Christian perfection. I want to spread Your mercy by
performing works of mercy, both spiritual and corporal, laboring
especially for the conversion of sinners, bringing consolation to those
in need, to the sick and the suffering.
Guard me then, O Jesus, as Your own possession and Your own glory.
Though I sometimes tremble with fear, aware of my weakness, at the
same time I have boundless trust in Your mercy.
Oh, that all people would come to know the infinite depths of Your
mercy, while there is still time,
so that they may place their trust in Your merciful love and glorify
You forever. Amen.
Jesus,
King of Mercy,
I Trust in You.

when the way seems dark and dreary. We await your help and praise
God for guiding us to seek your help especially in difficult situations.

Most holy Apostle St. Jude Thaddeus, faithful servant and friend of
Jesus, the name of the traitor who delivered your beloved Master into
the hands of His enemies has caused you to be forgotten by many, but
the Church honors and invokes you universally as the patron of
hopeless cases and things despaired of. Pray for me who am so
miserable. Come to my assistance and intercede with the Divine
Majesty that I may obtain the favor which I desire in this novena. (in
silence, mention the intention) if it be for the greater honor and glory
of God and of my own soul.

Dear St. Jude, kinsman of Christ, we pray for those whom God Has
given us to hold in special affection. We recommend to you all who
are dear to us, all our close relatives and friends. Please intercede for
their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. Help us to lighten their
burdens and to brighten their days. Look tenderly upon us and assist
us to fulfill the Lord's precept of loving others as ourselves. Amen.

PRAYER FOR PEACE

Dear St. Jude, we honor you as an apostle of Christ, a herald of the
Prince of Peace. You remained faithful to your calling and died a
martyr before being reunited with Christ in glory. Please look down
with compassion upon our turbulent world.
Intercede before the throne of grace that the present global turmoil
may give way to peace and harmony among all nations. May we live
at peace with one another and serve the Lord Jesus as messengers of
his peace as you did. St. Jude, disciple of Jesus, pray for us. May we
become the persons our Savior wants us to be St. Jude, reigning with
Christ in glory, pray for us. May we bring forth fruit to life
everlasting. St. Jude, advocate of hopeless cases, pray for us.
Remind us that we can conquer all evil through Christ who loves us.
Amen.
