Day 6
Blessed is the Fruit of your womb
"Where did Our Lord get His beautiful face, His strong Body, His clean Blood, His sensitive mouth, His delicate fingers? He got them from His mother's side. Where did He get His Divinity, His Divine Mind that knows all things, even our most secret thoughts, and His Divine Power over life and death? He got these from His Heavenly Father's side... The greatest compliment that can be paid to a true Christian is: 'You took after your Father's side in grace, but in your humanity, you took after your Mother's side.'" (Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen)
Mary, the only time your Son asked the Apostles for anything was to watch with Him in His agony. By the example of Fulton Sheen's daily Holy Hour, let us join you in adoring your Son's Holy Face and thus grow in His likeness.
Prayer for the Canonization of the Venerable Servant of God Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
Heavenly Father, source of all holiness, You raise up within the Church in every age men and women who serve with heroic love and dedication. You have blessed Your Church through the life and ministry of Your faithful servant, Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen. He has written and spoken well of Your Divine Son, Jesus Christ, and was a true instrument of the Holy Spirit in touching the hearts of countless people.
If it be according to Your Will, for the honor and glory of the Most Holy Trinity and for the salvation of souls, we ask You to move the Church to proclaim him a saint. We ask this prayer through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
Our Father × 1
Hail Mary × 1
