About this Blog for the SUV Calss of 2016

Following a schedule initiated in April 2015, weekly posts on this blog highlight the prayer/intention of every student in the SUV 7th grade class. Prayers and intercessions are original works of the students. Their intentions are arranged over the course of one year to coincide with the feast days of their Patron Saints (chosen in the sacrament of Confirmation). Other intentions appeal to Guardian Angels or are especially fitting on special days of recognition, as indexed in the label column to the right of the blog page.

Prayers are posted here so that they can be observed remotely with intent to grow as a spiritual community through the power of collective thought.

Saint Rose of Lima (August 23)

Saint Rose of Lima, the Patron Saint of Latin America and the Philippines, followed Jesus. Please help those who only see true beauty of themselves to notice that beauty isn’t really important to God, the beauty of loving God is important. God, we pray that those who care about themselves will soon realize there are poor, and sick people who are in need of help out in the world and that those people change and help those people, we ask this through Christ our Lord, Amen.

Saint Rose of Lima, Patron saint of Latin America and the Philippines, please protect the people living in the Philippines and Latin America. Protect them against hurricanes, Typhoons and Tsunamis. Also, please protect them from hunger, we pray to the Lord, Amen.
