PRO LABORE DEI PRAYER
God Most High, God of "Pro Labore Dei".
God of Wonders, we praise your power at work in the universe.
Thou who order all things mighty,
Lead us in the Spirit of Jesus your Son
To bring good news to the poor-
The news that God cares, God loves them,
To tell the prisoners that they are no longer imprisoned,
To tell the blind that now their vision is clear-
That they can see because God leads them;
To set the down trodden free, lift up the marginalized,
The oppressed of our nation, our world -
To tell them that they can be free.
Help us to be our brother's keeper, our neighbour's neighbour.
That our joy may be in you and our joy may be full.
Let Pro Labore Dei grow into a giant tree
With leaves that never fade, bearing fruits that never die,
giving shelter to the poor and stranger,
An avenue of service for all who wish to serve you in the poor.
Magnify your work, O Lord, till from corner to corner,
throughout the universe "PRO LABORE DEI" resounds
To the Glory of God the Father. We make this prayer through Christ your Son our
Lord who reigns with you and the Holy Spirit one God forever and ever AMEN.

A PRAYER THAT YOU MUST NOT IGNORE
PRAYER TO OUR LADY OF PERPETUAL SUCCOR
O God Almighty, who suffered death upon the cross
Particularly for my sins, be with me.
Holy Cross of Jesus have pity on me.
Holy Cross of Jesus be my protector.
Holy Cross of Jesus take away all evil.
Holy Cross of Jesus - let me walk in the way of salvation.
Preserve me from any temporal accidents; take away any danger of sudden death. I
always adore the Holy Cross of Jesus Christ. Jesus of Nazareth crucified, have
pity on me. Make the spirit of evil leave me for all times. Oh! Mother of
Perpetual Succor, I come before thy sacred picture and with a childlike
conscience invoke thy aid, show thyself a Mother to me now, have pity on me.
Oh! Dearest Mother of Perpetual Succor, for the love thou bearest for Jesus and
in honor of His sacred wounds, help me in this necessity (mention your
necessity). Our loving Mother, I leave it all to you in the name of the Father,
I leave it all to you in the name of the Son, I leave it all to you in the name
of the Spirit. Our Lady of Perpetual Succor, pray for us (3 times), Amen.
