Here make your act of spiritual communion, praying: My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen. 1SoulofmySaviour,sanctifymybreast,BodyofChrist,bethoumysavingguest,BloodofmySaviour,bathemeinthytide,Washmewithwaterflowingfromthyside.2Strengthandprotectionmaythypassionbe,OblessèdJesu,hearandanswerme; Deepinthywounds,Lord,hideandshelterme,SoshallInever,neverpartfromthee.3Guardanddefendmefromthefoemalign,Indeath’sdreadmomentsmakemeonlythine;CallmeandbidmecometotheeonhighWhereImaypraisetheewiththysaintsforay.PostCommunionPrayerPROCESSIONOFTHEBLESSEDSACRAMENTTOTHEALTAROFREPOSE.
