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.
