Fr. John Hardon Memorial Mass in La Crosse Thursday

This Thursday, December 30th marks the 10th anniversary of the passing into eternal life of this holy priest, a saintly Jesuit, and the beloved founder of the Marian Catechist Apostolate.

The Dec. 30th 11 a.m. Holy Mass intention at the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe is for Father Hardon. Please assist at this Mass if you are able.

Prayer for the Beatification and Canonization of Father Hardon:

Almighty God, You gave Your servant,
Father John Anthony Hardon of the Society of Jesus,
the grace of consecration as a religious dedicated to the
apostolate and the grace of consecration as an ordained priest,
after the Heart of Your Divine Son, our Good Shepherd.

Through Father Hardon,
You provided for your Flock an extraordinary teacher of the faith.
You entrusted Father Hardon into the loving
care of the Blessed Virgin Mary
whose counsel, "Do whatever he tells you" (Jn 2:5)
he faithfully followed and whose intercession he unceasingly invoked.

If it be Your holy will, please grant the request I now make,
calling upon the help of Father Hardon,
so that his heroic sanctity may be recognized in the whole Church. 
(intention)

I ask this through Your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, Who
with You and the Holy Spirit, is one God forever and ever.
Amen.
