Our surnames can tell people a lot about us, notonly our national origin or heritage, but their also connected to those thathave come before us with the same name. For better or worse our names can causea form of prejudice unfairly defining us before we have a chance to defineourselves. St. Urszula Ledochowska was born to a long and illustrious line ofPolish nobility, yet in taking on the mission of the neediest of the people ofthe time in which she lived, brought forth an amazing gift of good to theworld. Venerated for her sanctity for her life and not her surname, her storyis an inspiration for anyone struggling with their sense of identity in a worldthat can be unforgiving at best. Hear her story and pray with her and us today! Prayer/Modlitwa:Oh,Jesus, I commend to your Heart …Look and follow your Heart’s desire.  Allow your Heart to act. Oh, Jesus, I counton You. I put my trust in You. I surrender myself completely to you. I am sureof you. Oh, Heart, filled with love, I put all my trust in You, since I,myself, am capable of committing all evil, however, I expect everything fromyour goodness. By the merits of our Lord Jesus Christ, accept, O God, theprayers offered to You through the intercession of Saint Ursula, faithfulimitator of the virtues of the Heart of your Son, and grant us the favors weare confidently asking for. Amen.O Jezu, Sercu Twemu polecam… (tu wymienia się intencję) Spojrzyji uczyń to, co Ci Serce Twe wskaże. Dozwól działać Twemu Sercu. O Jezu, liczęna Ciebie, ufam Ci, oddaję Ci się zupełnie, jestem pewny(a) Ciebie. O Sercepełne miłości, całą mą ufność pokładam w Tobie, gdyż sam(a) z siebiezdolny(a) jestem do wszystkiego złego, ale spodziewam się wszystkiego po Twojejdobroci. Amen.Dla zasług Pana naszego Jezusa Chrystusa przyjmij, oBoże, modlitwy zanoszone do Ciebieza wstawiennictwem świętej Urszuli, wiernej naśladowczyni cnót NajświętszegoSerca Syna Twego, i udziel nam łask, o które z ufnością prosimy.
