Circular 2017-15

Oratio Imperata for October

Reverend Fathers, brothers and sisters in consecrated life:

Trusting in the power of prayer, we renew our practice of praying to the Lord to deliver us His flock from calamities.  With strong typhoons, destructive floods and high intensity earthquakes happening in many different parts of the world, we turn to the Lord who created everything to deliver us from these calamities.

Enclosed is the ORATIO IMPERATA Against Calamities in English, Tagalog, Pangasinan and Ilocano to be prayed BEFORE the Post Communion Prayer in ALL Masses in the Archdiocese of Lingayen Dagupan from October 1 until 31 this year.

Prayer has power. Prayer is our power. We trust in the mercy of God.

Sincerely yours,

+SOCRATES B. VILLEGAS

Archbishop of Lingayen Dagupan
