Pray for my Son, Adopt a Seminarian



It has been awhile since I posted when I asked you for prayers for my son.  He has made a huge decision to leave his major and educational path of Bio-molecular Engineering and begin his journey toward the holy priesthood.  
I am asking for you, dear readers, to pray for my son as he begins his discernment and years in the seminary.   You can 'adopt' him in prayer.

His name is Ben.  


Daily Prayers for Adopted Seminarians

In the name of the Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit we pray;
Come Holy Spirit, come by Means of the powerful intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, your beloved spouse and fill your seminarian, Ben, with your gifts especially Prayer, Purity, Discernment, Filial love and Perseverance.

May "We with our unveiled faces reflecting like mirrors the brightness of the Lord all grow brighter and brighter as we are turned into the image that we reflect" (2 Cor 3:18)

NOW:   Please pray the 4th Mystery of Light - The Transfiguration

 "Come Holy Spirit and transform your seminarian that he may reflect in his life the light of Christ!
 Mary Mother of the Church protect him.
 St Aloysius Gonzaga inspire Him.
***

Offer one mass per week for your adopted Seminarian. 

Pray daily the Prayer to St Michael Archangel for him.
Whenever you think of him he may need your prayer, say St. Michael, Archangel, help and protect Ben at this time.

Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle.
Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host,
by the power of God,
cast into hell satan, and all the evil spirits,
who prowl throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.


Thank you for your prayers for Ben.  
I will pray for you daily in my prayers as well.

Peace and all good,
Mary
