    God bless all my sisters.  hail Mary, full of grace,

    blessed art though 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 death, Amen.

    Our Lady's message in Medjugorje:

    "Dear children! Nature is awakening and on the trees the first buds are seen which will bring most beautiful flowers and fruit. I desire that you also, little children, work on your conversion and that you be those who witness with their life, so that your example may be a sign and an incentive for conversion to others. I am with you and before my Son Jesus I intercede for your conversion. Thank you for having responded to my call."

    Thank you for walking with me my bc sisters. xo

    I am here.

    Lord, as we bow our heads tonight and ask for your grace, bless our growing circle of sisterhood.  We thank you for bringing us all together in our time of need.  Send your special blessings to our newest sisters as they raise their intentions to you.  And embrace every one of us in your peace.  Amen.

    When the participants have gathered, all make the sign of the cross.

    The leader introduces the blessing in these words:

    We have gathered today to pray together, that we may grow in our understanding of the mystery of faith and follow God's path more closely.

    after a time of silence, then pray...

    Lord,

    pour out on us the spirit of understanding, truth and peace.

    Help us to strive with all our hearts to know what is pleasing to you,

    and when we know your will make us determined to do it.

    We ask this through Christ our Lord.

    Amen.

    So tonight's prayers will also include our newest Sisters and their intentions. I am reading and getting to know you all. Welcome Welcome, there is much strength and learning in this thread.

    Please let me know if there are other prayers besides St. Jude Novena and intentions? I see Paula's prayer as well, and have said it with you all in mind.

    St Micheal the Archangel, defend us in battle

    Please be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the Devil.

    May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, oh Prince of the Heavenly Host.

    By the power of God, cast into Hell Satan and all the evil spirits, who prowl through the world seeking the ruin of souls.

    Amen

    Remember O most Gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession was left unaided.

    Inspired by this confidence we fly unto thee, Oh Virgin of Virgins, our Mother. To thee we come, before you we stand, sinful and sorrowful.

    Oh Mother of the word Incarnate, despise not our petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer us.

    Amen.

    Lord, You invite all who are burdened to come to You. Allow your healing hand to heal me. Touch my soul with Your compassion for others. Touch my heart with Your courage and infinite love for all. Touch my mind with Your wisdom, that my mouth may always proclaim Your praise. Teach me to reach out to You in my need, and help me to lead others to You by my example. Most loving Heart of Jesus, bring me health in body and spirit that I may serve You with all my strength. Touch gently this life which You have created, now and forever. Amen

    Heavenly Father,

    We come humbly come before you asking that you hear our prayers.  Bless these faith filled women every single day as they come before You in prayer and thanksgiving.

    Bless our newest sisters that have joined us...give them peace and surround them with your warm embrace.

    Allow your healing white light to come to us, surround us, fill us, and protect us from the evil that wants us to give into it... 

    May we all feel the blessings you bestow on us each day...

    In Your Name I pray,

    Amen

    Amen.

    I visualized all of us together, hand in hand in a circle, on a hill in the sunlight. We all wore white dresses and came together in solidarity. Strong, full of light, and unbreakable.

    Good Night Sisters.
