Our Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father, hear our prayer:

Please weave the women of St. Raphael into a beautiful tapestry of faith and friendship. Let us be woven by your Holy Spirit with our eyes and hearts set upon Christ our Savior. Help us shine with the light of Christ and draw souls to Jesus. We ask this in the name of Jesus, through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Amen.

Via Crucis - the Fourteenth Station

Posted by our anonymous poet who is now taking a well deserved rest.  Have a Blessed Holy Week, our sweet sister!




Fourteenth Station - Jesus Is Laid in a Tomb


I watch as they lay His Sacred Body behind a stone,


For my sake, my redemption, and my sins to atone.

By Christ’s goodness I live in assuredness of His grace,

To do what He couldn’t do- that I am still here in His place.

Here to offer my thoughts, words, and actions in all I do,

Letting Him touch, sow, and live through me making everything new.

He lives in me to be a light to the world and give me hope,

There is nothing with Christ by my side through which I can’t cope.

With all my heart I pray, my God, to be a pleasing servant of Christianity,

To be as Christ to others and a witness to Him in all of humanity.
