Together let us pray with St. Elizabeth Ann...
"Lord Jesus, Who was born for us in a stable, lived for us a life of pain and sorrow, and died for us upon a cross; say for us in the hour of death, Father, forgive, and to Your Mother, Behold your child. Say to us, This day you shall be with Me in paradise. Dear Savior, leave us not, forsake us not. We thirst for You, Fountain of Living Water. Our days pass quickly along, soon all will be consummated for us. To Your hands we commend our spirits, now and forever. Amen." (Prayer by Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton)

Finally, those of us who are military are all blessed to have St Elizabeth Ann Seton watching over us. She knows our problems because she was the mother of a sailor.Final Prayer with St. Elizabeth Ann.....
"We must pray literally without ceasing—without ceasing—in every occurrence and employment of our lives . . . that prayer of the heart which is independent of place or situation, or which is rather a habit of lifting up the heart to God as in a constant communication with Him." AMEN
Love,
Deacon Tom
