Novena to SS. Peter and Paul, Martyrs of Rome
(Feast June 29th)
Simon
Peter, before I called thee out of the ship, I knew thee, and appointed thee
for a captain over My people.
And I
have given unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven.
Whatsoever
thou shalt bind on earth, shall be bound in heaven and whatsoever thou shalt
loose on earth, shall be loosed in heaven.
And I
have given unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven.
Saul,
who also is called Paul, was made a great preacher
And
being of God increased the more in strength, he confounded the Jews.
Proving
that This is very Christ, the Son of God.
And
being of God increased the more in strength, he confounded the Jews.
By the
grace of God I am what I am.
And His
grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain, but abideth ever in me.
He that
wrought effectually in Peter to the Apostleship, the Same was mighty in me
toward the Gentiles.
And His
grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain, but abideth ever in me.
