50 YEARS OF CAFOD FUNDRAISING. If you would like to contribute to our latest fundraising for CAFOD please take one of the plant pots at the back of the church for this purpose. When you have filled it with small change, please return it to the back of the church. We are raising money to buy drought resistant crops for those most in need of them.

Holy Face of Jesus

ROSARY IN HONOR OF THE SACRED FACE [USES REGULAR ROSARY BEADS]

Most Sacred Face, we call on You until You hear our prayers. You are able to help us wonderfully, Holy God, Mighty God, Holy Immortal God! Have mercy on us and on the whole world! Turn Your Face towards us and we shall be save!

At the large beads we pray

Heavenly Father, humble and fervently we offer You the infinite merits and sufferings of the Sacred Face, His Precious Blood, all the wounds and tears of Jesus, to Your greater Glory, for help in our great need!

At the small beads, instead of the Hail Mary, we pray:

FIRST DECADE

O Sacred Face, covered with wounds, have mercy on us, who call on You!

SECOND DECADE

O Sacred Face, covered with blood, have mercy on us, who call on You!

THIRD DECADE

O Sacred Face, shedding tears with infinite Love, have mercy on us, who call on You!

FOURTH DECADE

O Sacred Face, despised and insulted, have mercy on us, who call on You!

FIFTH DECADE

O Sacred Face, silently bearing the most bitter pain, have mercy on us, who call on You!

Conclude:

Let us adore the Sacred Face of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Our Saviour, Whose merits are infinite and Whose mercy is fathomless. May He grant us the remission of our sins and true conversion. Let us console His Sacred Face by the purity of our lives, by fearless witness to our Faith and by the depth of our love!

Amen
