Devotional Prayers
A Treasury ofPrayer
Devotional prayers are the personal prayers of the faithful, distinct from the official liturgical prayer of the Church. They allow us to express our love for God in our own time and manner, drawing upon the wisdom and holiness of those who have gone before us.
The Church has a rich treasury of devotional prayers developed over two millennia - prayers to the Sacred Heart, prayers to Our Lady, prayers to the saints, and prayers for every need and occasion of life.
We invite you to explore this collection and discover prayers that speak to your heart and your needs. May these prayers become companions on your journey of faith.

St Anthony of Padua
Saint Anthony of Padua, renowned as the Finder of Lost Things and the Evangelical Doctor, has long been an inspiration. Born in Lisbon in 1195, he became a Franciscan friar and embodied compassion, humility, and a passionate dedication to preaching. People turn to St Anthony for his powerful intercession, especially when facing difficulties, searching for lost items, or seeking guidance. This prayer sheet gathers beloved prayers, reflections, and intentions to help all who seek St Anthony’s aid find comfort and hope. His symbol is the lily, reflecting his purity of soul.

Our Lady of Mount Carmel
On July 16th we celebrate the feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, reflecting on her virtues and love for the faithful. The theology of Our Lady of Mount Carmel is based on the understanding that the Blessed Virgin is an exemplar; a model of prayer, contemplation, and virtue. These considerations are particularly significant for Carmelites and as such she is their patroness.
