Little girl looking Dear readers, Catholic Online was de-platformed by Shopify for our pro-life beliefs. They shut down our Catholic Online, Catholic Online School, Prayer Candles, and Catholic Online Learning Resources—essential faith tools serving over 1.4 million students and millions of families worldwide. Our founders, now in their 70's, just gave their entire life savings to protect this mission. But fewer than 2% of readers donate. If everyone gave just $5, the cost of a coffee, we could rebuild stronger and keep Catholic education free for all. Stand with us in faith. Thank you. Help Now >

Prayer for a Happy Death #1

Grant us,
Lord Jesus,
always to follow the example of Your holy family,
that at the hour of our death
Your glorious Virgin Mother
with blessed Joseph
may come to meet us,
and so we may deserve to be received by You
into Your everlasting dwelling-place.

Amen.

The original words...

Grant unto us,
Lord Jesus,
ever to follow the example of Thy holy Family,
that in the hour of our death
Thy glorious Virgin Mother
together with blessed Joseph
may come to meet us
and we may be worthily received by Thee
into everlasting dwellings:
Who livest and reignest world without end.

Amen.
