Jesus, Crown of Holy Women; Tuesday’s Prayer for Sisters and Nuns

Jesus, Crown of Holy Women; Tuesday’s Prayer for Sisters and Nuns August 25, 2015

Jesus and Mary MosaicChrist is the spouse and crowning glory of Sisters and Nuns. Let us praise him with joy in our voices and pray to him with sincerity in our hearts: Jesus, crown of holy women, hear us.

Christ, the holy women loved you as their one true spouse, grant that nothing may separate Sisters and Nuns from your love. Jesus, crown of holy women, hear us.

You crowned Mary, your mother, queen of virgins, through her intercession, let Sisters and Nuns continually serve you with pure hearts. Jesus, crown of holy women, hear us.

Your handmaids were always careful to love you with whole and undivided attention, that they might be holy in body and spirit, through their intercessions grant that the lure of this passing world may not distract Sisters and Nuns from you. Jesus, crown of holy women, hear us.

Lord Jesus, you are the spouse whose coming was anticipated by the wise virgins, grant that Sisters and Nuns may wait for you in hope and expectation. Jesus, crown of holy women, hear us.

Through the intercession of St. Jane Frances de Chantal,  grant Sisters and Nuns wisdom and perseverance in life. Jesus, crown of holy women, hear us.

Amen.
