PRAYER
FOR ASH WEDNESDAY

Merciful and loving God, as we begin this holy season of Lent, I humbly come before You, acknowledging my sins and my deep need for Your forgiveness and grace. You know the weakness of my heart, my failures, and my struggles. Cleanse me, O Lord, and renew within me a spirit that seeks You above all things.

May these blessed ashes remind me that I am dust and to dust I shall return, calling me to repentance and sincere conversion. Help me to recognize how much I need Your healing in my life and lead me to turn away from sin and walk faithfully in Your ways.

Grant that this Lenten season may open my heart to deeper prayer, sincere fasting, and generous charity. Teach me to grow in humility, patience, and love, so that my life may reflect Your mercy and goodness. Heal what is wounded in me, strengthen what is weak, and guide me closer to You each day.

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. May this season be a time of spiritual renewal, drawing me into deeper union with You and preparing me to celebrate the joy of Christ’s Resurrection.

May the Lord bless us, protect us from all evil, and bring us to everlasting life. Amen.

FIRST THURSDAY OF FEBRUARY
A DAY OF DEVOTION TO ST. JUDE THADDEUS

Today, we turn to St. Jude Thaddeus, patron saint of hopeless and difficult cases. In moments of trial and uncertainty, we place our trust in his powerful intercession, believing that with God nothing is impossible. May this devotion strengthen our faith, renew our hope, and remind us to never lose heart.

PATRON SAINTS WE TURN TO IN TIMES OF SICKNESS

St. Roch is invoked against infectious diseases, especially during times of plague and epidemics.
St. Raphael the Archangel is a patron for healing and sickness, reminding us of God’s restoring care.
St. Blaise is the patron saint of throat illnesses, sought through the blessing of throats.
St. Agatha is the patron saint against breast cancer, a symbol of courage and faith amid suffering.
Many of the faithful also turn to the saints for intercession against chronic pain, asking God for strength, endurance, and healing in long-term illness.

Through their prayers, may we be comforted, healed, and strengthened in faith.
