Intentions requested for…grace of leadership, strength for parents and families, and increased enrollment for St. Nicholas School. 
Nine (9) days of prayer to begin the first day of each month. 
I.   O my Jesus, you have said: “Truly I say to you, ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and it will be opened to you.”  Behold I knock, and through the intercession of St. Nicholas, I seek and ask for the grace of leadership, strength and blessings for our families and patrons, and increased enrollment for St. Nicholas School.  Say one Our Father…one Hail Mary…one Glory Be to the Father…”St. Nicholas, our patron, pray for us.” 
II.   O my Jesus, you have said: “Truly I say to you, if you ask anything of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.”  Behold, in your name, and through the intercession of St. Nicholas, I ask the Father for the grace of leadership, strength and blessings for our families and patrons, and increased enrollment for St. Nicholas School.  Say one Our Father…one Hail Mary…one Glory Be to the Father… ”St. Nicholas, our patron, pray for us.” 
III.   O my Jesus, you have said: “Truly I say to you, heaven and earth will pass away but my words will not pass away.”  Encouraged by your infallible words, and through the intercession of St. Nicholas, I now ask for the grace of leadership, strength and blessings for our families and patrons, and increased enrollment for St. Nicholas School.  Say one Our Father…one Hail Mary…one Glory Be to the Father… ”St. Nicholas, our patron, pray for us.” 
“Oh God, with help from the merits and prayers of St. Nicholas, grant us the grace which we ask of you.  Say the Hail, Holy Queen. 
***************************************************************************************************************** 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.  HAIL MARY, full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou amongst 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, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.  As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end.  Amen. 
HAIL, HOLY QUEEN, Mother of Mercy, our life, our sweetness and our hope, to you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to you do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears; turn, then, most gracious Advocate, your eyes of mercy toward us, and after this, our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus.   O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!  Pray for us, O holy Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
