Starting today, could you please join me in praying the following prayer for the next nine days, for the intention of my parish, that it will be allowed to stay open? Thanks! This means the world to me.

Novena Prayer to the Holy Trinity

God, Eternal Father, bless me with the love with which You have
begotten Your only Son from all eternity and shared with Him the
fullness of Your own Divinity.

Bless me through the love which has made us children of adoption and
partakers of the treasures of Your Divinity.

Bless me through the love with which You have sent us Your Son and
the Holy Spirit in order to work the miracles of Your power and mercy
in us. Grant that I may always revere and honor You as my great God
and love You with my whole heart as the best of Fathers.
Eternal Father, grant my petition: that Holy Trinity Parish remain
open.

God, Eternal Son, image of the splendor of the Heavenly Father, bless
me through the love with which You surround us, Your poor creatures.
You have become our Brother according to the flesh to make us Your
brothers according to Your Divinity, and an image of Your splendor.
Bless me through the marvelous goodness of Your Sacred Heart which
caused You to choose death in order to bring us life.

Bless me through the love with which You always plead for us in the
Blessed Sacrament and the throne of God and give Yourself to us in
Holy Communion. Grant that all this love and all Your bitter pain may
not be lost on me.

Eternal Son, grant my petition: that Holy Trinity Parish remain open.
God, Holy Spirit, mutual Love of the Father and the Son, bless me
through the love with which You proceed from the Father and the Son
and unite Them in eternal unity.

Bless me through the love with which You give Yourself to us as our
greatest Gift, dispensing Your Divine graces to us and transforming
sinners into children of God.

Bless me through the love with which You dwell in the Sacred Heart of
Jesus, through Whose merits the earth is filled with grace and made a
dwelling place for the God of Heaven. Grant that I, Your faithful
servant, may always allow myself to be led by You so as to advance in
virtue and reach eternal happiness.

God Holy Spirit, grant my petition: that Holy Trinity Parish remain
open.

I just realised that some of what I said could be considered disrespectful. If it is then I appologise.It seems I can never avoid putting my foot in it. Good luck with your church.

Hey, no offense taken: I've said some things -- in a fit of anger or despair -- to the All Mighty that I wouldn't dare to repeat; your comment on harrassing the All Mighty is pretty mild by comparison, believe me! But any words to the Higher Power upstairs, however you or anyone views this Being, are very greatly appreciated.
