Pauli: Thanks for the link. Kathleen: It's all the famous ones: Apostle's Creed, Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be, Fatima prayer, Hail Holy Queen, Morning Offering, Anima Christi, Holy Spirit Prayer, Guardian Angel prayer, St. Michael's prayer, Memorare. In times of great need when I cannot formulate a spontaneous prayer, these have burbled up from within my soul and have aided me greatly. I just want his glass full of good, time-tested prayers so they spill out when he is bumped.
"It is not our part here to take thought only for a season, or for a few lives of Men, or for a passing age of the world. We should seek a final end of this menace, even if we do not hope to make one." — Gandalf the Wizard, The Fellowship of the Ring
I think I meant "sub-divisions". Didn't mean to put down any grapefruit fans; I know that's a sensitive subject.
ReplyDeletewhat's a "catholic rote prayer"? the ones we memorize? must be.
