Your Morning 5 Prayer options 

The Our Father

Our Father,

who art in heaven,

hallowed be thy name.

Thy Kingdom come;

Thy will be done

on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread;

and forgive us our trespasses

as we forgive those who trespass against us;

and lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil.

Amen.




Prayer Upon Waking

Heavenly Father, I call on you right now in a special way;

in thanksgiving for giving me the gifts of this new day.

Let my first thoughts always be those of love and gratitude.

Inspire my thoughts to seek you in all things, to trust you in all things, and to honor you in all things.

Lord, bless every encounter I have today.

Shine your light and hope through me to lift everyone I engage with today.

Let my words always be life-giving and lead others back to you.

Fill me with your spirit so every step I take this day is one step closer to you.

Thank you for the gift of this day. May every moment bless your holy name.




Morning Offering

Oh, my Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and in union with your most precious blood poured

out on the cross and offered in every mass throughout the world,

I offer you today my prayers, works, joys, sorrows, and sufferings

for the praise of your holy name and all the desires of your Sacred Heart

in reparation for sin, the conversion of sinners, the union of all Christians and my final union with you in

heaven.

Please give me the strength to escape whatever is in prospect and to stand secure before the Son of Man.

to light and guard

to rule and guide
