Welcome to Anima Christi Retreats, the non-profit established by Father Dan Leary in 2012!
In the summer of 2023, Father Dan returned from three years of Missionary work with the Sisters of Mary in Chalco, Mexico, and is now Pastor of St. John the Evangelist Parish in Clinton, MD. We welcome Father Dan back to the US and look forward to continuing to support his Healing and Retreat ministry! We will continue to provide links to the work of the Sisters of Mary and their founder, Venerable Aloysius Schwartz, a native of the Washington DC area. Ven. Al's cause is up for Canonization. We hope you will continue to support the work of the Sisters of Mary and World Villages for children. Learn more here: www.worldvillages.org

The Holy Father's Prayer Intention
for the Months of July and August ...
July: For the pastoral care of the sick
We pray that the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick confer to those who receive it and their loved ones the power of the Lord and become ever more a visible sign of compassion and hope for all.
August: For political leaders
We pray that political leaders be at the service of their own people, working for integral human development and for the common good, especially caring for the poor and those who have lost their jobs.

ANIMA CHRISTI ("Soul of Christ")
Soul of Christ, sanctify me. Body of Christ, save me. Blood of Christ, inebriate me. Water from the side of Christ, wash me. Passion of Christ, strengthen me. O Good Jesus, hear me. Within Thy wounds hide me. Suffer me not to be separated from thee. From the malignant enemy defend me. In the hour of my death call me. And bid me come unto Thee, That with all Thy saints, I may praise thee Forever and ever. Amen. |
