Got Rosary?
“The Rosary is the ‘weapon’ for these times.” — Padre Pio
#CatholicTwitter#RosaryProject
Prayers offered in the opening & closing of our Live Rosary are optional, including the novena prayers. Use as many or as few as you like. Skip around, skip them altogether. Make it yours.
The tweets in this section of our thread are offered for reflection in preparation for praying the Rosary.
In the Name of the Father,
and of the Son,
and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Padre Pio, pray for us!
Lord, lay your healing hand upon me, for I have sinned.
Antiphon
1 Unto the end, a psalm for David himself. Blessed is he that understandeth concerning the needy & the poor: the Lord will deliver him in the evil day.
2 The Lord preserve him and give him life, & make him blessed upon the earth: & deliver him not up to the will of his enemies.
3 The Lord help him on his bed of sorrow : thou hast turned all his couch in his sickness.
4 I said: O Lord, be thou merciful to me : heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee.
5 My enemies have spoken evils against me: when shall he die and his name perish?
6 And if he came in to see me, he spoke vain things: his heart gathered together iniquity to itself. He went out and spoke to the same purpose.
7 All my enemies whispered together against me: they devised evils to me.
8 They determined against me an unjust word : shall he that sleepeth rise again no more?
9 For even the man of peace, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, hath greatly supplanted me.
10 But thou, O Lord, have mercy on me, and raise me up again : and I will requite them.
11 By this I know, that thou hast had a good will for me : because my enemy shall not rejoice over me.
12 But thou hast upheld me by reason of my innocence : and hast established me in thy sight for ever.
13 Blessed by the Lord the God of Israel from eternity to eternity. So be it. So be it.
Amen and amen!

Some prayer intentions, please add yours, too, if you like.
Well, I haven't vomited since they put me on a second nausea medication and my last day of chemo for this cycle is Sunday. I'll then get a break until October 10th! Yay!

- For Cindy’s mother who passed away, and the family is taking it really hard.
I haven’t done this before on this site, but I’m asking for prayers because I believe in them. It’s looking like our 7-month-old may have a pretty scary neurological diagnosis — we will find out more soon. If inclined, please offer a prayer for Ignatius
