Wednesday, November 13 : Saint Francis of Assisi

All-powerful, most holy, most high and supreme God, Holy and just Father, Lord, King of heaven and earth
we thank You for Yourself for through Your holy will and through Your only Son with the Holy Spirit You have created all things spiritual and corporal and, having made us in Your own image and likeness, You placed us in paradise.
And through our own fault we have fallen. And we thank You for as through Your Son You created us so also, through Your holy love with which You loved us, You brought about His birth as true God and true man by the glorious, ever-virgin, most blessed, holy Mary and You willed to redeem us captives through His cross and blood and death. And we thank You for Your Son Himself will come again in the glory of His majesty to send the wicked ones who have not done penance and who have not known You into the eternal fire, and to say to all those who have known You and have adored You and have served You in penance: “Come, you blessed of my Father, receive the kingdom, which has been prepared for you from the beginning of the world” (Mt 25,34). And because all of us wretches and sinners are not worthy to pronounce Your name, we humbly ask that our Lord Jesus Christ Your beloved Son in whom You were well pleased
together with the Holy Spirit, the Paraclete, give You thanks as it pleases You and Him for everything, [He] Who always satisfies You in everything through Whom You have done such great things for us. Alleluia!
