**** Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament for the first Friday of Each month from 2pm thru Benediction at 7pm. Spanish Mass at 7:30pm
Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament 
"My Jesus! What a lovable contrivance this holy Sacrament was - that You would hide under the appearance of bread to make Yourself loved and to be available for a visit by anyone who desires You!" - St. Alphonsus Ligouri
Spiritual Communion
My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the Most Blessed Sacrament. I love you above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already come, and I unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
** Every Monday after the 8am mass, *perpetual Novena in Honor of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. St. Catherine Laboure
O Immaculate Virgin Mary, Mother of Our Lord Jesus and our Mother, penetrated with the most lively confidence in your all-powerful and never-failing intercession, manifested so often through the Miraculous Medal, we your loving and trustful children implore you to obtain for us the graces and favors we ask during this Novena, if they be beneficial to our immortal souls, and the souls for whom we pray. (Here privately form your petitions.) You know, O Mary, how often our souls have been the sanctuaries of your Son who hates iniquity. Obtain for us a deep hatred of sin and that purity of heart which will attach us to God alone so that our every thought, word and deed may tend to His greater glory. Obtain for us also a spirit of prayer and self-denial that we may recover by penance what we have lost by sin and at length attain to that blessed abode where you are Queen of angels and of men, Amen
** Every Friday after the 8am mass, Meditation of the Divine Mercy Chaplet
The "Our Father", Hail Mary, the Creed.
Pray five times the following:
Eternal Father, I offer you the Most Precious Body and Blood,
Soul and Divinity of your dearly beloved Son, our Lord Jesus Christ in atonement for our sins and the sins of the whole world.
For the sake of his sorrowful passion and the sorrowful Immaculate Heart of Mary:
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
In the Agony in the Garden,
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
In the scourging of Our Lord,
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
In the crowning with thorns,
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
In the trial and condemnation to death,
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
In the carrying of the cross on his wounded shoulder,
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
In the encounter with Mother Mary,
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
In the encounters with the Cyrinean, Veronica and the holy women
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
In the falls of Our Lord,
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
In the stripping of our Lord's garments,
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
In the crucifixion,
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
In the sorrowful agony and death,
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
In the piercing of His Most Sacred Heart,
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
In the sorrows of Our Lady after the death of Our Lord, as She received the body of Jesus in her arms, as She placed Him in the tomb and as She waited until the Resurrection,
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world
Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One,
Have Mercy on us and on the whole world.
[Three times at the end]

** Every Saturday after the 9am mass meditation on the Holy Rosary
The Sign of the Cross: In the name of the Father of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
The Apostles' Creed: I believe in God the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He decended into hell; the third day He arose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven,and sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgivness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen
The Our Father: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name: Thy kingdom come: Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread: and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation: but deliver us from evil. Amen.
The Hail Mary: Hail Mary, full of grace; the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen
Glory Be to the Father: Glory be to the Father, and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
The Fatima Prayer: "O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, and lead all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need of Your Mercy".
(Our Lady at Fatima, 13th July 1917)
The Hail, Holy Queen: Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy! our life, our sweetness, and our hope! To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley, of tears. Turn, then, most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us; and after this our exile show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus; O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary.
additional prayers
"O God whose only begotten Son has purchased for us the rewards of eternal life, Grant that we beseech Thee while meditating upon these mysteries of the Most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we may both imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise, through the same Christ our Lord Amen."
"My God, I believe, I adore, I hope, and I love You. I beg pardon of You for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not hope, and do not love You."
(The Angel to three children of Fatima, spring 1916)
