St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in the battle. Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray.

Prayer before a Crucifix

Behold, O kind and most sweet Jesus, I cast myself upon my knees in Thy sight and with the most fervent desire of my soul I pray and beseech Thee to impress upon my heart lively sentiments of faith, hope, and charity, with true repentence for my sins, and a firm purpose of amendment, whilst with deep affection and grief of soul I ponder within myself and mentally contemplate Thy five wounds, having before my eyes that which David spoke in prophecy: O good Jesus, “They have pierced My hands and feet, they have numbered all My bones.”

Prayer after Holy Communion: Anima Christi

Soul of Christ, santify me.

Body of Christ, save me.

Blood of Christ, inebriate me.

Water from the side of Christ, cleanse me.

Passion of Christ, save me.

Oh dear Jesus, hear me.

Within thy wounds, hide me.

Suffer me not to be separated from Thee.

From the malignant enemy, defend me.

At the hour of my death, call me, and bid me

to come to Thee, so that with all Thy saints and angels, I may be, praising You for all eternity, Amen.

Spiritual Communion (for when not properly disposed to receive Holy Communion)

Oh my Jesus, I truly believe that Thou are present in the Most Blessed Sacrament. I love Thee above all things and desire to possess Thee within my soul. Since I cannot now receive Thee in Thy Blessed Sacrament, come to me spiritually into my heart. (Pause) As though Thou wert already there, I embrace Thee and unite myself wholly to Thee, permit me not to be ever separated from Thee. May the Body of Our Lord Jesus Christ keep my soul unto Everlasting Life, Amen.
