The Prayer Liturgy of Peace
for the intentions of peace and protection of Christians in the middle east that that may be delivered from the hands of the wicked and that our faithful departed may enjoy eternal life. Therefore we ask for the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary to intercede for our Christian family.

Chaplain: Hearing of the sickness that is going around in our world, we pray tonight for those who are suffering with ebola, we pray for those who have contracted it and as of yet have no outward symptoms and for those who will contract it, for all their souls, and we pray for deliverance, that the spread may come to a swift end. We also continue to pray for our Christian brethren who are suffering for Christ's sake in the Middle East and all over God's created earth. We pray especially for those who will be martyred and who have been for the sake of Our Lord, who will be washed in the Blood of the Lamb, who takes away the sins of the world and who promises great reward and treasure in heaven for all those who are persecuted for his name sake.

Litany of Union

(He then bows to the crucifix, poignantly, once more. Then begins the Litany facing the people, after the first V and R he turns facing the crucifix)

V: In Peace, sending up these petitions to the Lord Our God, we ask the Saints, to join us in their prayers to the Holy Trinity, who by their life on earth has given due praise and glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, whom the Trinity has counted worthy of eternal life to join the celestial bodiless powers of heaven in parsing the Eternal Lamb, whom with the Father and the Holy Spirit is Blessed. Therefore we entreat you, O Saints of God, to pray for us and with us,

R: All Saints of God, holy men and women, and you especially, my patrons: deign to plead for us and with us, the petitions we ask on behalf of our brethren and on behalf of those who do not participate here today, bring them, with your prayers, to the Eternal Godhead, whom you have pleases by your earthy life, to the praise and glory of Jesus Christ for our welfare, the welfare of those we pray for also and that of all His holy Church.
Amen.

V: For Yours is the kingdom and the power and glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,
now and ever,
and unto the ages of ages
Amen.

V: Again in Peace, sending up these petitions to the Lord Our God, we ask the Celestial bodiless powers of heaven, to join us in their prayers to the Holy Trinity. We ask them, who serve the throne of the Eternal Godhead by serving mankind and being his angelic ministers and messengers to join their eternal prayers, which are always filled with the perfect parses of the Divine Majesty, with ours. Therefore we entreat you, O holy celestial bodiless powers of heaven, to pray for us and with us,

R: Angels, Archangels, Thrones, Dominations, Principalities, Powers, celestial Virtues, Cherubim and Seraphim, deign to plead for us, speedily sending our prayers on yours wings soaring aloft to the throne of the Eternal Godhead to grant our petitions on behalf of those we pray for, to the praise and glory of Our Lord Jesus Christ, for our welfare, the welfare for those we pray for also and that of all His holy Church.
Amen.

V: For You are good God and the lover of mankind and to you do we ascribe glory,
to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,
now and ever,
and unto the ages of ages
Amen.

(He then turns to the people, saying the Verse.)

V: For God so loved the world that he sent his only begotten Son down on earth to save and grant us salvation. He was born of a Virgin, a pure and spotless women whom the Eternal Godhead chose from all eternity, to be His mother on earth. All of God-incarnates Church profess her, all of the saints in heaven know her, and all of the celestial bodiless powers exclaim her to be the Eternal Trinity's most loved and valuable possession, most able and most willing servant, Above all saints and celestial powers, whose is glorified by her Son, with the Father and Holy Spirit. Let us entreat her and call upon her intercession as we say,

R: Hail Mary,
full of grace,
the Lord is with Thee
Blessed art thou among all women
and Blessed is the fruit of thy womb JESUS
Holy Mary Mother of God,
Pray for us, sinners
now and at the hour,
of our death
Amen.

V: Blessed Virgin Mary, most loved servant of the Eternal Godhead, we ask you to join in our prayers. We have asked for the union of the prayers of Our Lord's saints and celestial powers, of whom you are the Queen. Look then O Blessed Mary, whom the Lord deemed fit from all eternity, to be our mother, upon us the servants of your Divine Son JESUS and join us with your immaculate prayers. Take our prayers, from us unworthy sinners, and purify them, letting them pass through your all holy and pure mouth to the thorn of the Holy and Divine Trinity.
Therefore holy Mother before we entreat you to join us, the saints and the celestial powers we offer you this prayer, do thou

R: Mother and Queen of our hearts, heaven and earth,

look upon those we pray for, and us, remembering the grief you experienced when you witnessed the martyrdom, the crucifixion, and the death of your Divine Son, look upon us with your eyes of compassion and awaken in our heart a tender commiseration for those sufferings, as well as a sincere detestation of our sins, in order that, being disengaged from all undue affections for the passing joys of this earth, We may long for the eternal Jerusalem, and that henceforth all of our thoughts and all my actions may be directed toward this one most desirable object.
Honor, glory, and love to our Divine Lord Jesus, and to the Holy and Immaculate Mother of God.
Amen.

(He then turns back, to the crucifix continuing the Litany)

V: Again and Again in Peace, sending up these petitions to the Lord Our God, we ask our all holy, pure most blessed and glorious Lady the Mother of God and Ever Virgin Mary to join us in our prayers, together with the saints and celestial powers of whom you are the Queen. Take our prayers, O, Mother of Our Lord JESUS Christ, and purify them, speak them to the Eternal Godhead, Trinity undivided, who loves you more than any creature in the universe, for we know that a single sigh of yours will cause action in the Holy Trinity, a single prayer of yours to your Divine Son, will make the impossible possible and thus will put to confusion those here on earth who deny the power of your intercession for us before the Trinity. Therefore we entreat you, O holy Mother of God, Queen of heaven and earth, Queen of our Hearts, Queen of every creature, humble maiden chosen from eternity and women given to us as a Mother to make intercession for us until the end of time, to pray for us and with us,

R: O most pure, most blessed and glorious Lady the Mother of God and ever Virgin Mary, deign to plead for us by the power of your intercession, above all the creatures' prayers in the universe, before Our Lord JESUS Christ, you Divine Son, so grant our petitions on behalf of the those we pray fora and also for us, O Mother, to the praise and glory of Our Lord Jesus Christ, for our welfare, the welfare for those we pray for also and that of all His holy Church.
Amen.

Litany of Mercy

(He then bows to the crucifix, poignantly, once more. Then begins the Litany facing the people, after the first V and R he turns facing the crucifix)



Therefore Lord, in the union with the prayed of the saints, celestial powers and your all holy, pure and most blessed Mother, the Ever Virgin Mary, we ask you, beg you, and hope in you, to Hear and Have Mercy,
V:So Lord, we repeat the petitions we ask for us and our brothers and sisters, and ask you


R: Hear and Have Mercy

Through our prayers, from the lips of unworthy sinners, grant the petitions we ask of You, Lord,
Hear and Have Mercy

Through the prayers of the saints in heaven, who have pleased you in earthy life and whom you counted worthy of eternal life, Lord,
Hear and Have Mercy

Through the prayers of the celestial bodiless powers of heaven, who serve at Your Eternal throne for all time, Lord,
Hear and Have Mercy

Through the prayers, of the all holy pure and most blessed Lady the Mother of Your only-begotten, Lord
Hear and Have Mercy

(He then bows to the crucifix, poignantly. Signing himself with the cross three times and with arms outstretched, him and the people say the following V.)

Exclamation

V:+R: With all these prayers Lord, we give you our hearts and exclaim,
Holy are You and all Holy,
You and your only-begotten Son and Your Holy Spirit,
Holy are you and all Holy, and magnificent is your glory
For you gave Your only-begotten to us that whoever believes in Him
shall not perish but have eternal life. We believe and love Him,
We believe and trust Him,
Holy are you and all Holy, For your infinite loving forgiveness,
Holy are you and all Holy, For your abounding and ever rich mercy
Holy are you and all Holy, For your love endures forever

(He then, with arms out stretched, continues with the people, turns and faces them)

V: Family, let us pray as Christ Himself as taught us,
V+R: 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
deliver us from evil.
Amen.

(He then turns back facing the crucifix)

Doxology

V: For thou art God, The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit
Trinity undivided
ineffable, inconceivable, ever existing and eternally the same
It was You who brought us from non-existence into being
and when we had fallen away from You
You sent Your only-begotten Son, coming down and taking on flesh,
that we might not perish but have eternal life
For this act, of which there is no measure to compare, of Divine Love for us your handmaids
who count as nothing but dust,
have raised us up, through your Son Jesus Christ, so that we might join You
and Your saints and celestial powers in praising you eternally
in your kingdom, where you welcome us as a loving Father
and have been pleased to number us, though unworthy, to be
with you in heaven,
And So with all the saints, celestial powers of heaven, and with Your most blessed and pure holy Mother,
we give you thanks and with all our hearts, minds, souls' and strength we
ascribe You the glory,
To the Father and the to the Son and to The Holy Spirit
now and ever
and unto the ages of ages
Amen.

Closing Prayers

(He then turns and faces the people as they say with him,)

V+R: May the Lord, hear us and have Mercy on us and for those we pray,
May the Lord hear us and answer our prayers, according to His will.
And May the fateful departed today rest in peace.
Amen.

V: Now, brethren, as we have asked Our God and loving Father, to accept our prayers, with the saints, celestial powers, and his all holy Mother, having read and received his Holy Words within our hearts, we give thanks to Him and ask him finally to grant our petitions,

Through your Son our Lord Jesus Christ,

Who lives and reigns with You, in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

One God, for ever and ever

R: AMEN
