RECOLLECTION DAY - NOVEMBER



                     Jesus most gentle, I thank you for all your tender care
               for me this last month; I beg you to forgive the many times I
               have  been  ungrateful  to  you.  In  my  desire  to  please  you,  I
               resolve  that  during  this  coming  month  I  will  devote  myself
               totally  to  charity  towards  my  neighbour.  Whatever  you  have
               given  me:  life,  eyes,  hands,  feet,  capacities  and  everything
               else, I will use it all for the benefit of my brethren.
               I will have especially in mind: sinners, the sick, the poor, the

               illiterate and the youth. I will never let a day pass by without
               making at least 5 acts of charity to meet spiritual or material
               needs. Gentle Jesus, teach me yourself how to find ways of
               doing  good  to my  neighbour;  on my  part  I  promise  I  will  not
               spare  myself,  day  or  night,  when  it  is  a  question  of  bringing
               relief to someone. I would be very happy if at the cost of much
               trouble I can have the good fortune to prevent even just one
               venial sin.
                     Mary most Holy, my gentle Mummy, I commend myself
               to your care.
                     My Guardian Angel, St Aloysius, Advocate and Patron
               Saints, pray for me.
                                       __________
