Prayer for God's Blessing
on the
Future Development
of St. Agnes Home

O glorious St. Joseph, steadfast follower of Jesus Christ, we are confident that your prayers for us will be graciously heard at the throne of God. To you we lift up our heart and hands asking your powerful intercession to obtain from the compassionate Heart of Jesus the material and spiritual resources we need to continue the mission entrusted to the Carmelite Sisters, DCJ, to provide a home away from home. St. Joseph, by the love you bear for Jesus Christ, and for the glory of His Name, hear our prayers so that the Sisters may continue to provide the residents at St. Agnes Home a place where they can spend a quiet evening of life lighted up by peace and warmed by God's Love. Amen.

Incline Your ear, O Lord, to our prayers, in which we humbly entreat Your mercy. Bring to a place of peace and light the souls of our deceased Carmelite Sisters, DCJ, and bid them be numbered in the fellowship of the saints. Bless the good work You have begun in them, and help us to continue it at St. Agnes Home. Grant a favorable outcome to our desires to improve the living conditions for our residents here. We ask this in Your Name. Amen.

Dismantling the balconies to make room for the new stair tower.

the pipes are in place, the ground is prepared . . . Now for the cement to be poured!
Pouring the cement!
And the walls come up!
