O God, heavenly Father, your Son Jesus Christ enjoyed rest and refreshment in the home of Mary and Martha of Bethany: Give us the will to love you, open our hearts to hear you, and strengthen our hands to serve you in others for his sake; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

On Mondays through Saturdays at 12pm we offer prayers at the shrine of Our Lady of Fifth Avenue that include the traditional recitation of the Angelus, prayers from the diocesan and Anglican cycle, and intercessions. Shrine prayers, and the daily Mass that follows, are audio livestreamed and then available on-demand.

You can leave us your own intercessions online (using the link below) or in the church itself. Names can also be added to the prayer list by purchasing a digital candle. Finally, we invite those of you who listen to this service online to make an act of spiritual communion, the text of which you can access below along with shrine prayer and candle lighting requests.

An Act of 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 to be separated from you.
Amen.
