Suscipe of Venerable Mother Catherine McAuley

Mother Catherine McAuley wrote this prayer as an act of surrender. The prayer continues to be prayed by all Sisters of Mercy today. The Alma Mercy Sisters pray the each day following Mass.

Suscipe Text:
My God, I am Thine for time and eternity. Teach me to cast myself entirely into the arms of Thy loving providence, with the most lively, unlimited confidence in Thy compassionate, tender pity. Grant me, O Most Merciful Redeemer, that whatever Thou dost ordain or permit may be acceptable to me. Take from my heart all painful anxiety, suffer nothing to sadden me but sin, nothing to delight me but the hope of coming to the possession of Thee, my God and my All, in Thine Everlasting Kingdom. Amen.

My Mercy

The Alma Mercy Sisters often sing this song at Vow Ceremonies. This recording was a prayer offered to Sisters on the day of their Perpetual Profession.

My Mercy was written and composed by the Benedictine Sisters of Ephesus

Food for the Soul

One of our Sisters compiled the prayer of Saint John Mary Vianney to music. This prayer is in praise and thanksgiving of the great gift of the Most Holy Eucharist, recognizing the Divine Plan of the Lord from all Creation to feed us with His very Flesh.
