Let us begin, In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Make an Act of Contrition.
You can use any form; simply ask God to pardon your sins and make a firm purpose of amendment not to commit them again.
Spiritual Communion:
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me O Blessed Trinity, we thank you for having graced the Church with Saint John Paul II and for allowing the tenderness of your fatherly care, the glory of the Cross of Christ and the splendor of the Spirit of love to shine through him.
Most holy servant of God, Pope St. John Paul II, we pray today for the youth and for World Youth Day.
We ask you to grant us your blessing from heaven! God gave you the grace of His fatherly tenderness and the spirit of His love from which we can all learn. We humbly implore you to intercede for us:
(State your intentions)
Most holy St. John Paul II, you were a witness of Jesus Christ for the whole world. You lit the world on fire with your passion for Christ and the Church. Trusting in God’s infinite mercy and in the intercession of Mary, you have shown us the path to reach eternal communion with God. And we ask that you pray for us…
Pray for us, that we can convey forgiveness to those who have done wrong.
St. John Paul II, we know that you are a powerful intercessor because of your great example of how to live the faith. Grant us, through your intercession, the grace to also happily glorify God in our lives.
Hail Mary…
Glory be…
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
