Morning prayer with the Oblate Family: Saturday October 1st

With English Martyrs parish

Good morning everyone, and welcome to morning prayer from English Martyrs parish, in Tower Hill, London.

Today is the feast day of Saint Therese of Lisieux, the famous little French saint and Doctor of the Church, who is well-known for her autobiography, ‘The Story of a Soul’, and her Little Way. Let us pray this Therese of Lisieux prayer:

My God, I offer you all that I do today for the intentions and the glory of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I want to sanctify every beat of my heart, my thoughts and my simplest works by uniting them to his infinite merits. I want to repair for my faults by casting them into the furnace of his merciful love. O my God! I ask you for myself and for those dear to me the grace to fulfil perfectly your holy will and to accept for love of you the joys and sorrows of this passing life, so that one day we may be reunited in Heaven for all eternity. Amen.

We hope you enjoy this morning’s reflection and thank you for joining us today. Please consider sharing this with family and friends. All are welcome to join us.
