Prayers to Our Lady of Perpetual Help
Feast Day - June 27
O Mother of Perpetual Help,
grant that I may ever invoke thy most powerful name, which is the
safeguard of the living and the salvation of the dying. O Purest
Mary, O Sweetest Mary, let thy name henceforth be ever on my lips.
Delay not, O Blessed Lady, to help me whenever I call on thee, for,
in all my needs, in all my temptations I shall never cease to call
on thee, ever repeating thy sacred name, Mary.
|
|
O what consolation, what
sweetness, what confidence, what emotion fill my soul
when I pronounce thy sacred name, or even only think of
thee. I thank God for having given thee, for my good, so
sweet, so powerful, so lovely a name. But I will not be
content with merely pronouncing thy name: let my love
for thee prompt me ever to hail thee, Mother of
Perpetual Help.

prayers such as the Rosary, please

Breakfasts
The Hospitality Ministry
cordially invites you to meet your fellow Parishioners and Priests
while enjoying a delicious Continental Breakfast (including bagels,

OLPH Wall of Honor
At Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish we created a "Wall of Honor", which is
located next to the Blessed Mother's Altar of our Church. Photos of our
loved ones who are serving in the military throughout the world are displayed
there and remembered in the Prayer of the Faithful at our weekend Masses.
As the service men and women return they will are welcomed home at Sunday Mass
and invited to take down their picture.
You're welcome to submit your photos - properly identified, by mail or in
person to the rectory, or drop them off in the boxes on the sanctuary steps.
Let's look forward to this wonderful way to honor and pray for our troops!
