SPUC has prepared a briefing which gives a step by step guide to completing the consultation questionnaire.

Prayer for the year 2021: The Angel’s Prayer
O Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore Thee profoundly. I offer Thee the
most precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ present in all the tabernacles of
the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges and indifferences by which He is offended.
By the infinite merits of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary I beg the
conversion of poor sinners. Amen. A prayer given to the three children of Fatima by the Angel of Peace. There was a Eucharistic host and chalice
suspended in the air, and the angel led them in kneeling before it and praying this prayer.

. Monday
Miraculous Invocation to St. Therese
O Glorious St. Therese, whom Almighty God has raised up to aid and inspire the
human family, I implore your Miraculous Intercession. You are so powerful in
obtaining every need of body and spirit from the Heart of God. Holy Mother
Church proclaims you “Prodigy of Miracles… the greatest saint of Modern
Times.” Now I fervently beseech you to answer my petition (mention here) and
to carry out your promises of spending heaven doing good on earth… of letting
fall from Heaven a Shower of Roses. Little Flower, give me your childlike faith,
to see the Face of God in the people and experiences of my life, and to love
God with full confidence. St. Therese, my Carmelite Sister, I will fulfill your plea
“to be made known everywhere” and I will continue to lead others to Jesus
through you. Amen.
Tuesday
Unfailing Prayer to St. Anthony
Blessed be God in His Angels and in His Saints
St. Anthony, gentlest of Saints, your love for God and charity for his creatures,
made you worthy, when on earth, to possess miraculous powers. Miracles
waited on your word, which you were ready to speak for those in trouble or
anxiety. Encouraged by this thought, I ask you to obtain for me the favors that I
seek (mention your request here).
The answer to my prayer may require a miracle, even so, you are the Saint of
Miracles.
O gentle and loving St. Anthony, whose heart was full of sympathy, whisper my
petition into the ears of the Infant Jesus, who loved to be held in your arms; and
the gratitude of my heart will ever be yours. Amen
Wednesday
St. Joseph
Oh, St. Joseph, whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt before the throne of God. I
place in you all my interests and desires. Oh, St. Joseph, do assist me by your powerful
intercession, and obtain for me from your divine Son all spiritual blessings, through Jesus
Christ, our Lord. So that, having engaged here below your heavenly power, I may offer my
thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of Fathers.
Oh, St. Joseph, I never weary of contemplating you, and Jesus asleep in your arms; I dare not
approach while He reposes near your heart. Press Him in my name and kiss His fine head for me
and ask him to return the Kiss when I draw my dying breath. St. Joseph, Patron of departing
souls - Pray for me
Thursday
Prayer for the Intercession of St. Padre Pio
Dear God, You generously blessed Your servant,St. Pio of Pietrelcina,
with the gifts of the Spirit. You marked his body with the five wounds
of Christ Crucified, as a powerful witness to the saving Passion and Death of Your
Son. Endowed with the gift of discernment,
St. Pio labored endlessly in the confessional for the salvation of souls.
With reverence and intense devotion in the celebration of Mass,
he invited countless men and women to a greater union with Jesus Christ
in the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist.
Through the intercession of St. Pio of Pietrelcina,I confidently beseech You to grant
me the grace of (here state your petition). Amen.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning,is
now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen (Say Glory be ...three times)
Friday:
O most holy heart of Jesus, fountain of every blessing, I adore you, I love you,
and with lively sorrow for my sins I offer you this poor heart of mine. Make me
humble, patient, pure and wholly obedient to your will. Grant, Good Jesus, that I
may live in you and for you. Protect me in the midst of danger. Comfort me in my
afflictions. Give me health of body, assistance in my temporal needs, your
blessing on all that I do, and the grace of a holy death. Amen.
