"When Jesus promised the Holy Spirit He told His apostles and all of us to pray for this grace. The Holy Spirit has come but we must continue to pray that our souls may be open to receive the Holy Spirit and that we may become better instruments to bring His gifts of Peace, Love, and Healing to the world.

As you pray this prayer please include in your intentions the Healing & Restoration Ministry. Pray that God may use this Ministry to bring His Peace and Healing to the World. Pray with us for all those sick and suffering who seek our help and prayers."

 

 

Come, Holy Spirit













"This is the Logo of our Healing & Restoration
Ministry. It pictures the Holy Spirit sending
His Graces and gifts on the world through the
Prayers and suffering of Jesus and Mary as
depicted by angels carrying the instruments
of the suffering of Jesus and Mary in the icon
of Our Mother of Perpetual Help."

     Let us turn our minds and our hearts to God who is the answer to all our problems. May the love of God, our Father bless us. May Jesus be our Lord, Our savior and Good Shepherd. O Holy Spirit, fill us with your grace and gifts. In the words of sentiments of the church we ask your help.

 Come, Holy Spirit, and direct on our minds and hearts and on our bodies and souls, the rays of Your light.

  Come, Father of the poor!
 Come, Giver of God's gifts!
 Come, Light of men's hearts!		    

   Ever kind Paraclete, visit our souls. In your gracious visits, bring us Your consolations and relief in our sickness and suffering, fear, and turmoil. Fill us with Your divine consolation.

   In life's temptations, fill us with Your Divine Power. In life's sorrows, fill us with hope and peace. In all of life's problems, be with us as our Advocate.

   Come, Holy Spirit, we need You . Without You everything in our life is sinful. Be our guide, our light, our consolation and our strength. Forgive our sins! Wash clean our sinful souls and make them your temples! Fill our minds with Your peace and Joy! Heal our broken and sick bodies! Heal our broken hearts! Soften our hard hearts! Give us a new heart, filled with DivineLove!

   Let our hearts filled with Divine Love to be Your fountains to bring this living water of Divine Love to thirsting souls. Give us a new spirit. Breathe on Your spirit of wisdom, understanding, fortitude, knowledge, counsel, piety and the fear of the Lord.

   O Holy Spirit, fill us with Your charismatic gifts. Grant us that special charism Your wisdom knows is best suited to our talents and personality. Through this charism use us to build up God's Kingdom.

   O Holy Spirit of Love, Joy, and Peace. Give us a spirit of kindness, goodness, and gentleness. Impart to us a spirit of self-control, so that all we do or say is directed to the glory of Our Heavenly Father.

   O Holy Spirit, grant us the greatest of all healing -- the grace of a happy death. It was You, O Holy Spirit, who entered into the tomb of Jesus, on the first Easter. It was your divine power that brought Jesus back to his Glorious Resurrection. Let us share in the Resurrection Victory of Jesus. Let us share in His victory over sickness, sin, death, every evil, and every power of the devil now and eternally.

   O Mary, the Mother of Jesus and our mother, pray for us. Pray with us and for us as you did with the apostles and disciples in the first Pentecost. Pray that we may experience a new Pentecost in our lives, in the church and throughout the world.

   May we go forth as instruments of the Holy Spirit filled with Divine Wisdom and Power to bring God's Love and Healing to the world. Pray for us poor sinners, O Mary, that like you we may be God's instruments to bring His peace and healing to the world. Be to us always a loving Mother of Perpetual Help.
