DE PROFUNDIS
PSALM 129 (130)
V. Out of the depths, I have cried to Thee, O Lord, Lord, hear my voice.
R. Let Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
V. If Thou, O Lord, shalt mark my iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand it?
R. For with Thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of Thy law I have waited for Thee, O Lord.
V. My soul hath relied on His word; my soul hath hoped in the Lord.
R. From the morning watch even until night; let Israel hope in the Lord.
V. Because with the Lord there is mercy; and with Him plenteous redemption.
R. And He shall redeem Israel from all its iniquities.
V. Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord,
R. and let perpetual light shine upon them:
V. May they rest in peace
R. Amen.
LET US PRAY: Most merciful Jesus, by the merits of Thy five wounds, hear our prayers on behalf of the faithful departed now awaiting Thy word in Purgatory. Grant, O Lord, to show particular mercy to the soul that did most to propagate the devotion to Thy Sacred Heart while on earth. Speed his journey to Heaven, that he may join Thy angels in praising Thee forever. Amen.
PRAYER OF SAINT GERTRUDE THE GREAT FOR THE HOLY SOULS IN PURGATORY
(A prayer which would release many souls from Purgatory each time it is recited)
Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen.

2⃣ NOVENA TO ST. CECILIA
DAY 8 - NOVEMBER 20
Eternal God, you gave us the gift of St. Cecilia, a powerful protector and patron of music. We strive to pass our days faithfully and innocently like holy St. Cecilia so that we may come to Heaven where we may praise You in concert with her.
God the Father of Heaven, Have mercy on us.
God the Son, Redeemer of the world, Have mercy on us.
St. Cecilia, patron of holy music. Pray for us!
We praise you, O Virgin St. Cecilia, who gave your blood for the defense and faith of Jesus Christ. We seek your prayers for…
(State your intentions here…)
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...
St. Cecilia, you chose to die instead of denying Jesus, we pray that you help us as we sing His holy praises. We lift our hearts in song to honor Him and while we sing, we remember to sing is to pray twice. Amen.

3⃣ NOVENA TO OUR LADY OF THE MIRACULOUS MEDAL
DAY 3 - NOVEMBER 20
O Most Holy Virgin, O my Mother, ask thy Son on my behalf for everything my soul and all mankind needs so that thy Reign be established on earth. My most earnest request is that thou mayest triumph in me and in all souls and implant thy Reign on earth. Amen.
THE CROSS WILL BE DESPISED
“The Cross will be despised and hurled to the ground, blood will run in the streets, the Side of Our Lord will be opened again. The archbishop will be stripped of his garments.” Here the Holy Virgin, her face filled with sadness, could no longer speak. “My child, the whole world will be plunged in sorrow,” she said to me.
(State your intentions here…)
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...
LET US PRAY: O Most Holy Virgin, O my Mother, obtain for me the grace to live in union with thee, with thy Divine Son and the Church at this crucial moment in history, as tragic as the Passion, when all humanity is about to choose sides for or against Christ! Obtain for me the graces I implore, especially the grace of requesting that which thou most wants to grant me. Amen.
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee!

4⃣ NOVENA TO CHRIST THE KING
DAY 4 - NOVEMBER 20
OPENING PRAYER: Lord Jesus, King of the universe, we want to open our spirit in this novena dedicated to you and contemplate the mystery of your life as an Apostle of the Kingdom with your mind and heart. We ask you, through the intercession of Mary, to establish your reign in our hearts so that united to you, we can make your Kingdom present in the hearts of people and in society.
“This is my commandment: love one another as I love you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends.” (John 15:12-13)
Jesus Christ, our Friend and Lord, reigns from the Cross. There he reveals to us the love that burns in his Heart and the thirst he has to be loved. His unconditional, free, and redeeming love invites us to open our own hearts to receive it. He invites us to love Him and to love what He loves. He invites us to let him love us.
(State your intentions here…)
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be...
CLOSING PRAYER: Lord Jesus, open my heart so that you can reign in it, make present your mystery in me, and transform my life so that you can continue your mission through me. Amen.
Christ the King, Your Kingdom come!
