Catholic Prayer: Hail, holy Queen


Hail, holy Queen
(Salve, Regina)
Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy; hail our life, our sweetness and our hope. To you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve. To you do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn then, most gracious Advocate, your eyes of mercy toward us. And after this our exile show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.  


Partial indulgence if you pray this. 

An indulgence is the remission before God of the temporal punishment due for sins already forgiven as far as their guilt is concerned. 



Matthew 18:18
"Truly I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven."

Based on the word of Jesus Christ in Mathew 18:18 his word above was addressed to the Church then (can be applied to the Church of today as well) has the authority and power to bind and unbind. 


Reading of Sacred Scripture (The Bible)



Reading of Sacred Scripture
As a Catholic you will be blessed if you read at least one half hour the sacred scripture with veneration due to the divine word. A plenary indulgence will be granted if you do it.
When you read Sacred Scripture reading the divine word, the Holy Spirit will guide you to prayer that you can may to save both your souls and many others near you.

Matthew 18:18
"Truly I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven."

Based on the word of Jesus Christ in Mathew 18:18 his word above was addressed to the Church then (can be applied to the Church of today as well) has the authority and power to bind and unbind. 






Requiem aeternam - Eternal Rest

Requiem aeternam (Eternal Rest)
Eternal rest grant to them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. (Roman Breviary) 

This prayer is for the souls in purgatory or for deceased loved ones.

"Truly I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven."
