We will be praying a novena at all Masses for the canonization of Fr Pedro Arrupe SJ from the 5th November, the feast of All Saints and Blessed of the Society of Jesus, until the 13th November, the eve of the birthday of Pedro Arrupe SJ in 1907.
Heavenly Father, You gave us Pedro Arrupe to preside over the Society which St Ignatius chose to be named after your Son. You blessed him with a boundless optimism founded on deep faith and complete trust in your divine Providence. For him your Son, Jesus, was everything. Through his intercession grant us the favour we ask ...
Above all grant us the grace of surrendering ourselves fully into your hands in sickness as well as in health, in joy as well as in adversity, in success as well as in failure. Make us always persons for others. Place us with your Son, Jesus, so that under His standard we may work for the establishment of justice and peace in the world. We make this prayer through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Our Father,
Hail Mary,
Glory be...
