PRAY: CORPUS CHRIST NOVENA | DAY 1
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
The Creation of the World
As the Solemnity of Corpus Christi approaches, we recall the blessing of creation, which Christ takes up, transforms, and presents to his heavenly Father.
God also said: “See, I give you every seed-bearing plant on all the earth and every tree that has seed-bearing fruit on it to be your food.” Genesis 1:29
(Mention your intentions here…and for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the diocesan-wide 40 Hours Adoration campaign and the Corpus Christi Mass & Procession on June 21.)
You make the plants to serve mankind’s need. That he may bring forth bread from the earth / and wine to cheer the heart.
Concluding Prayer
O God, who in this wonderful Sacrament have left us a memorial of your Passion, grant us, we pray, so to revere the sacred mysteries of your Body and Blood that we may always experience in ourselves the fruits of your redemption. Who live and reign with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Jesus, Lord of Creation, grant us the grace to offer ourselves, our works, and all creation in union with you to the Father. Amen.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
