Guards of Honor 1st Friday / April 2024 Fr. David Bellusci, OP
In Our Little Chapel where the Sacred Heart of Jesus dwells, we place all the intentions of our members in His Loving Heart and ask Him to bless them.
“The Soul Walking with the Sacred Heart”
And He joined Himself to them on the way
The Pilgrimage from earth to Heaven is often difficult and rough and full of peril. Do not walk by yourself while you have a Friend who offers to join you--to accompany you on the way. This divine Friend is Jesus! He is all powerful--He is all good. He is both willing and able to protect you in all danger. Beseech Him, then. each morning to be the Companion of your pilgrimage; and not to leave you alone for a moment. Place your hand, as it were, in His and go on without fear. In difficult places you will always find Him at your right hand. Contemplate Him with the eyes of your heart.
Ask of Him strength and wisdom. He will never fail you.
Jesus, the faithful pilgrim's Friend
Ever to thee my life shall tend.
Prayer to Renew Our Fidelity and Devotion
Divine Jesus, my Saviour and my King, with all my heart I renew the promise which I have made to love, to glorify and to console Your adorable Heart as a member of the Guard of Honor. Grant O good Master, to make me daily more loving, more devoted and more faithful. I ask this same grace for all the Associates through the Immaculate Heart of Your Mother. AMEN
