FIRST FRIDAY AND SATURDAY: 2 & 3 FEBRUARY
The astoundingly amazing promise of Our Lord to St. Margaret Mary: “I promise you, in the excessive mercy of My Heart that My all powerful love will grant to all those who receive Holy Communion on the first Friday of nine consecutive months, the grace of final repentance: they shall not die in My disgrace nor without receiving the Sacraments; my Divine Heart shall be their safe refuge in that last moment.”
The promise of Our Lady to Sr. Lucia, on 10 December, 1925:
“I promise to assist at the hour of death with the graces necessary for salvation all those who, in order to make reparation to me, on the First Saturday of five consecutive months, go to Confession, receive Holy Communion, say five decades of the Rosary, and keep me company for a quarter of an hour, meditating on the fifteen Mysteries of the Rosary.”

PRAYERS FOR THE SICK
Lord, Holy Father, Almighty and eternal God, by pouring Your grace into the bodies of the sick, You watch with all- embracing care over Your creatures. Be present in Your kindness as we call upon Your holy name. Free Your servants from sickness, restore them their health, raise them up by Your right hand, strengthen them by Your power, protect them with Your might, and give them back to Your holy Church with all that is needed for their welfare. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Grant O Lord God, to Your servants lasting health of mind
and body, and by the intercession of the glorious Blessed Mary ever-Virgin, may they be saved from present sorrow and given to share in everlasting joy. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
God of heavenly power, by Your word You drive away all
weakness and sickness from the bodies of men. In Your mercy, be with Your servants now, so that their infirmity may depart, their full strength and health may return, and they may bless Your holy name. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Our Lady, Health of the Sick, hear ou r prayers.
