COVID-19 Update

IVERMECTIN: Honest studies (below) prove what canceled doctors were saying from the start – i.e., that Ivermectin was both safe and effective. Those who deliberately demonized Ivermectin are responsible for at least 800,000 excess deaths in the United States alone.

72% effective in preventing infection: A study conducted in 399 participants showed a 72% reduction in COVID-19 infection for the group that took a 28 day regimen of oral ivermectin. The study was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group clinical study. All participants were unvaccinated adults who had been exposed to the virus within 5 days of screening. No safety signals related to daily intake of ivermectin. The study used 200 microgram/kg on Day 1, then 100 microgram/kg daily from Day 2 to Day 28.

70% more effective than Remdesivir in reducing mortality: Another study compared patients in the United States who were treated with Ivermectin (they identified 1,072 such patients), and compared them with patients who were treated with Remdesivir (40,536). Adjusting for confounders such as age, obesity, etc differences between groups, they found that Ivermectin reduced mortality by 70%, compared to Remdesivir.

Comment posted by an M.D. on Igor Chudov’s substack: “EVERY SINGLE study ‘debunking’ ivermectin by the likes of NEJM, JAMA, BMJ etc are ALL…100% fraudulent. Every single article doses the patient well after or very late into the viral replication phase which maaaay last 2 weeks, but usually around 7-10 days. Moreover, the dosing is ALWAYS either too little and/or too brief. Also, most of these BS studies are in the hospitalised patient, which is essentially too late, although IVM does have benefit later in the course (as opposed to HCQ, which doesn’t).

SUDDEN DEATH: This healthy, physically fit 21-year-old cadet played center on Air Force’s football team. He collapsed on his way to class and was pronounced dead after first responders were unsuccessful in attempting lifesaving measures. The Air Force Academy strongly recommended, but did not absolutely mandate the ‘rona jab, which they oh-so-helpfully inform us has been “proven safe and effective.”

VAXXX: In the spring of 2021, Everest Romney was a perfectly healthy, 17-year-old, 6-foot-9 basketball player who had high hopes for getting a scholarship to play college basketball. On April 21, he got a Pfizer COVID-19 jab. By that evening, he was feeling neck pain and swelling. In subsequent days, he had extreme migraines. By April 30, he was in the hospital with three blood clots in and near his brain. He now has blood clots in his leg, and his lungs. His father developed more than 100 blood clots in his lung, which is now partially dead. His mother has had repeated shingles outbreaks since her one and only shot, and Emerald, the baby she later gave birth to, is half the typical weight of a one-year old.

COMMITTEES: Adam Schiff, Eric Swalwell, and Ilhan Omar are finally getting kicked off the Intel and Foreign Affairs Committees. Swalwell whine about vengeance. Hmm … or maybe not so much. Remember when Adam Schiff lied to us for literal years about all the hard evidence he had that Trump should be impeached? Remember when Swalwell had an affair with a Chinese spy and she searched through his phone/laptop and likely stole classified intelligence information? Remember when Ilhan Omar divorced her baby daddy to marry her brother so he could get a green card, then divorced her brother and remarried her baby daddy, then had an affair with a non-Muslim and divorced her baby daddy to marry him? Or, I dunno, how about all the times she called for Israel to be wiped off the face of the map? Never mind vengeance, Eric. The whole lot of you are corrupt incompetents and Nancy Pelosi owes us an explanation for why she didn’t remove you long ago.

FAUXTUS: CLICK https://twitter.com/bennyjohnson/status/1612878078484615170 to hear Joe lie out his lyin’ pie hole back in 2018 when he said he had no access to classified documents. Prior to the midterm elections, classified documents were found in the very office where he made that statement. Funny thing how that news was withheld until after the elections…

MEDICAL PROFITS: On Monday, the American Academy of Pediatrics issued new guidelines for the treatment of obesity in children. Never mind healthy eating and going outside to play! Those stupid old things don’t work. What they need is medications for kids as young as 12 and surgery for those as young as 13.

MITCH McCONNELL: Pfizer Inc. (New York, New York) made BILLIONS off their experimental mRNA therapy, due largely to support from politicians like our new GOP Speaker of the House. Bless their hearts, Pfizer has made a little thank you gift of $1 million to the building fund of the Republican Party of Kentucky, which will use it to expand the Frankfort Mitch McConnell Building in the state capital.

Other big corporations (none of them in Kentucky) who contributed to the glorification of the new Speaker of the House (who will, no doubt, express his gratitude in ways we may never know) include: Metropolitan Life Insurance Co., New York, $300,000; Altria Client Services LLC, of Richmond, VA., $100,000; Comcast Corp., of Philadelphia; $100,000; AT&T, of St. Louis; $100,000; and Delta Air Lines, of Atlanta, $50,000.

PANDEMIC OF THE UNVACCINATED: During the pandemic, holdouts were accused of being lethally self-centered, because the vaxxx (we were assured) prevented transmission of the virus. Except it didn’t. And last October, we learned that the mRNA serum had never been tested for its ability to prevent transmission. So it was just like what they did with kids and pregnant women – i.e., insist the jabs were safe and effective when they had never been tested on either.

PROG LOGIC: CNN tells us that the really important thing is not that Biden has classified documents, but that people learning about it has given Republicans “a new line of attack.”

Meanwhile, The View’s Joy Behar says Trump having classified documents is a Very Big Deal, but Biden having classified documents is not because … “We all know that Trump is a liar and a thief. We know that. So it’s not that big a jump to say that he obstructed and he lied. We don’t think Biden is a liar and a thief, so we give him the benefit of the doubt.

Click the Twitchy link below to read a list of 21 blatant lies that “not a liar” Biden has told, some repeatedly.

S&G: Harvard Medical School is offering a course called “Caring for Patients with Diverse Sexual Orientations, Gender Identities, and Sex Development,” which aims to instruct on-their-way medical experts in treating “LGBTQIA+” individuals — including those who have just been born. This is NOT the Babylon Bee.

TWITTER: While he was Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee and one of eight members on the J6 Kangaroo Committee, Adam Schiff told Real Clear Politics to delete J5 whistleblower stories. RCP told him to take a hike, so he whined to Twitter, which obligingly banned Real Clear Politics from the platform.

VAXXX: A formerly healthy, 33-year-old priest has been suffering for two years from heart problems that began the day he got jabbed. He says he was vaccinated twice, because hospitals and nursing homes would not allow him to visit otherwise. He has not taken any boosters. His heart problems leave him chronically tired. His doctor tells him, “No 33-year-old should be resting in bed.”

Still wondering if the vaxxx was actually designed to kill people? CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/tce_WNUawnU to hear how far back the Left’s depopulation plan really goes.

WAPO: “I’m old enough to remember the LITERAL YEARS I had to hear about Russian trolls who stole the election for Trump. This was the excuse the US Government used to get its grubby little fingers all over social media censorship. And it was completely based on a lie.” – Harris Rigby

1A: On August 27, 2021, Dr. Scott Gottlieb saw a tweet in which Dr. Brett Giroir stated correctly that natural immunity after Covid infection was superior to vaccine protection. It called on the White House to “follow the science” and exempt people with natural immunity from upcoming vaccine mandates.

Despite the fact that Giroir then encouraged those who did not have natural immunity to “Get vaccinated!”, Gottlieb emailed a complaint to Todd O’Boyle, Twitter’s then-top-lobbyist in D.C. and the company’s point of contact with the White House.

When O’Boyle recommended Giroir’s tweet be censored, he highlighted the fact that Gottlieb had once been the head of the FDA, while neglecting to mention that Pfizer was paying Gottlieb $365,000 a year to shill for them. O’Boyle also neglected to mention that Giroir had also been the head of the FDA. As a result, Twitter added the “pay no attention to this” tag to the tweet and blocked anyone from replying, sharing, or liking it.

BORDER: FAUXTUS’ visit to the border was just as North Korea bogus as his “most votes ever” White House coup. Before his arrival, El Paso removed all the homeless encampments from its streets and all the migrants from its migrant processing center. As a result, the Left got lots of movie prop photos “showing” the border is just fine.

CANCEL: Libs of TikTok reports that the “inclusive … positive and safe environment” reason behind the firing was a complaint by Purple Tinker (formerly, Jessica/Jonathan Blank Blank) that said employee was following “transphobe creeps” on Twitter.

Speaking of creeps … in 2011, Blank founded BronyCon for adult My Little Pony fans, calling it a “men’s version of feminism.” The convention allegedly had a pedophilia issue cuz … no really! … who woulda thunk that guys who like to dress up as a little girl’s fantasy cartoon character might have something kinky going on in their pants?! Purple Tinker also reportedly stalked, doxxed, sent child rape porn, and threatened to murder another Brony for 2 years, all the while defending pedophilia and using meth.

DAMAR HAMLIN: He has been transferred to a hospital in Buffalo for continued care nearer his family and teammates.

FAUXTUS: Last year, after the FBI seized classified documents from Trump’s home, Biden said he couldn’t believe anyone could be that irresponsible.” Look in the mirror, pal. In November, classified documents from his time as Vice President were discovered at the Penn Biden Center and turned over to the National Archives. Oopsie.

LIFE: More than 10,000 people were killed by euthanasia in Canada in 2021. One of the people who does the dirty work is Dr. Ellen Wiebe, says that giving patients lethal injections is “the most rewarding work we’ve ever done.” Apparently, she likes it even better than slaughtering the unborn, which is her day job.

RIP: Diamond of Diamond & Silk has gone to her reward.

VAXXX: Last week the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) quietly renewed an order that requires foreigners traveling to the U.S. to be vaccinated against COVID-19. The new order is set to expire on April 10 and applies to all foreign air carriers.

1A: Jeff Landry, the Attorney General of Louisiana, has released a document showing the Biden White House complaining to Facebook about their failure to censor negative commentary about the COVID-19 vaxxxines. In reply, the Facebook rep apologized and promised to do better.

Not the Bee correctly notes, “We heard for 4 years that Donald Trump was a unique threat to democracy and carried out ‘unprecedented’ attacks on a free press because he called out their BS. Meanwhile, Biden’s White House is actually censoring reporters and experts it doesn’t like.”

CATHOLIC: The Twelve Days of Christmas song can be adapted to be a catechism lesson for Catholic children about what God, our true love, has given to us: Twelve Fruits of the Holy Spirit; Eleven Faithful Apostles; Ten Holy Commandments; Nine Choirs of Angels; Eight Be-happy-attitudes; Seven Blessed Sacraments; Six Days of Creation; Five Books of Moses; Four Holy Gospels; Three Persons in One God; Two Natures in Jesus Christ; and One God who loves us all.

CHICOMS: It should raise eyebrows that a high ranking ChiCom casually remarked that a recently deceased colleague had “replaced many organs in his body.” However, the founder and executive director of Doctors Against Forced Organ Harvesting says he was not surprised to hear that Party officials “receive multiple transplants of essential, solid organs.”

In 2015, the Chinese claimed they had stopped using organs from death-row prisoners. But the number of transplants they perform and the quick access they give rich and/or powerful patients suggests they’re still maintaining a system of forced organ harvesting. In 2021, the country performed 50 percent more lung transplant surgeries than the previous year, even when the world at large was seeing at least a 10 percent drop.

In the U.S., a patient gets put on the national organ transplant wait list. Depending on who dies and how urgent the need among those who match, patients may get an organ anywhere from immediately to never. In China, patients wait a week to a couple of months, strongly suggesting they are not waiting for someone who matches to die, but for the authorities to locate and harvest the best match from among their pool of unwilling donors.

COLON CANCER: A new peer-reviewed article in the journal Toxicology in August 2022 found evidence that “food grade titanium dioxide”, a popular whitening agent used in products ranging from candy to sunscreen, accumulates in colon cells and may cause cancer.

GET WOKE, GO BROKE: After Victoria’s Secret replaced its traditional models with soccer loudmouth Megan Rapinoe and a biologically male trans model, sales tanked. The CEO who spearheaded the failed venture into wokeness is stepping down “in order to spend more time with her family.

VAXXX: CLICK https://rumble.com/v23x33u-more-vaccines-causes-more-infections.html to hear Dr. John Campbell talk about a three month study of 51,000 people that showed the risk of contracting COVID-19 increased with each additional jab. People with 1 jab were 1.7x more likely to catch the ‘rona than were the unvaxxxed. People with 2 jabs were 2.36x more likely. People with 3 jabs were 3.1x more likely. People with 4 jabs were 3.38x more likely. The large number of people involved makes this study extremely significant.

GRAMMY NOTES: In November, Mama Buzz and Dearest got me a year’s subscription to Watercolor Mastery with Emily Olson, a gifted watercolorist and teacher. A couple of days ago, I posted to her FB group the painting above that I did while watching one of her tutorials, plus an explanation for why it wasn’t like the reference.

COMMON SENSE: The Left hasn’t got any. CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/-2Ab7NP5IYE for one example.

MYOCARDITIS: In June, 2021, the FDA and the CDC issued a warning that the mRNA vaccines cause heart damage in young people. A paper in this month’s JAMA Pediatrics journal outlines the devastating impact of the government and the public continuing to jab young people who have a 99.99% chance of surviving a ‘rona infection.

Incredibly (or maybe not, given the political climate), the paper concludes that those young people who suffered COVID-19 vaccine-associated myopericarditis had “largely favorable outcomes”, apparently because “no in-hospital mortality was observed.” Maybe they couldn’t get the paper published without that bit of b.s. I don’t know.

What I do know is what else they reported. In 854 patients aged 12 to 20 years with vaccine-associated myopericarditis, 93% required hospitalization and 23.2% required ICU care. In addition, 87% had late gadolinium enhancement (LGE), while 16% had left ventricular dysfunction (LVD).

Cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough, M.D., notes, “Both LVD and LGE are predictors of sudden cardiac death. While the studies in this analysis did not follow children over years, as a cardiologist, I would infer that some of these children will go on and suffer cardiac arrest and sudden death.

Keep in mind that these 854 patients were once healthy kids with no pre-existing heart problems and a vanishingly small risk from catching COVID-19. If deliberately injecting them with a known heart toxin isn’t pure evil, I don’t know what is.

DAMAR HAMLIN: The injured Bills player is awake, breathing on his own, and talking. Praise God!

ECONOMY: The December jobs report was the worst one yet in FAUXTUS’ failed presidency, with 63% of workers reporting they live paycheck-to-paycheck – just shy of the historic high of 64% that we hit in March.

IDAHO: The Idaho Supreme Court upheld the state’s Total Abortion Ban, Six-Week Ban, and a civil enforcement measure against abortion, ruling that the state constitution does not implicitly contain a right to abortion, while the state does have a “legitimate interest in protecting prenatal fetal life in all stages of development.”

MILITARY: Congress has forced the DoD to withdraw its COVID-19 vaccine mandate for military service members. Thank God!!

OHIO: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/_WhqD-hxX9g to hear about the success of this state’s approach to school shootings.

SOUTH CAROLINA: On Thursday, the South Carolina Supreme Court struck down the state’s Fetal Heartbeat Act, declaring that the law infringed upon the “right to privacy.” The governor has pledged to fight this. “Our State Supreme Court has found a right in our Constitution which was never intended by the people of South Carolina. With this opinion, the Court has clearly exceeded its authority.” Hmm … kinda like SCOTUS did when it opened the flood gates …

SPEAKER: In the early hours of Saturday morning, Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) was elected Speaker of the House. The last remaining six Republican holdouts agreed to vote “present” on the 15th ballot after McCarthy agreed to a series of concessions, which included placing conservatives on the Rules Committee, capping discretionary spending, and establishing a committee to investigate the weaponization of the FBI and the Justice Department.

VAXXX: Australia is in the middle of yet another wave of the ‘rona. Their stats show that the people least likely to be hospitalized are the unvaxxxed AND that the risk of hospitalization goes up with each jab. Even worse, the more jabs you get, the more likely you are to die.

WHALE WATCHING: [4:16] – Passengers and crew had a once-in-a-lifetime sighting off the coast of Dana Strands Beach in Dana Point, California, when a gray whale gave birth right in front of them! Gray whales prefer to give birth in the warm and protected lagoons of Baja California, Mexico, but some calves just won’t wait and are born during the migration from their feeding grounds in the Bering and Chukchi Seas near Alaska to the mating and birthing lagoons of Baja. Gray whale calves are about 15 feet long when they’re born; adults average between 40 to 50 feet in length.

CHARLES DICKENS: I encourage you to click the link and read about the night a beautiful woman in blue appeared to Charles Dickens.

LIFE: In August of 2021, 5,706 babies died in elective abortions in Texas. Since then, the Supreme Court overturned Roe and Texas banned abortions on fetuses with detectable heart beats. In August of 2022, only three unborn babies were aborted in Texas, all to save the life of the mother. The news was not so good for the unborn the world over. Abortion was again the number one cause of human death worldwide in 2022, with an estimated 44 million dead.

OHIO: Keris Riebel was a 22-year-old newlywed who was married on October 8th to her husband, Jordan. She grew up in the church, and she and her husband, Jordan, were members at Trinity Baptist Church in Marion, Ohio.

Her obituary says, “Keris had a great love for Our Lord. She loved the bible and was devoted daily in reading the scriptures. Her heart for the Lord was reflected in the way she lived life, always having a smile, and her loving spirit and kindness for others.”

Not the Bee writes, “The brutality of the crime, the location in a sleepy Midwestern shopping center, and the tragic loss of a young, beautiful bride with her life ahead of her make this the kind of story that shocks a nation. And yet nearly no outlets are reporting on it. Why is that?

Take one look at the skin color of the perp and the skin color of the victim and you’ll know why. The only good news is that the perp is in custody and charged with murder. The Wyandot County Prosecuting Attorney says there was no apparent motive, that the attack was “random, sudden, and unprovoked.” The murder was recorded by security camera, plus the perp turned himself in and confessed.

PRAYER: In recent years, we’ve seen high school coaches fired for kneeling in prayer and Tim Tebow treated like crap because he knelt in prayer. The majority of NFL players who knelt during the National Anthem were treated like heroes, while the true heroes … the brave minority … who stood were treated like crap.

So naturally, I was surprised when, after Damar Hamlin’s collapse, both teams knelt on the field together to pray. Since then, an ESPN host prayed during his broadcast; CLICK https://rumble.com/v242y7u-espn-host-stuns-network-is-moved-to-prayer-on-live-tv.html.

End Times Update

POPE FRANCIS: Is he the last pope? [1:58] – On December 12, 2022, the pontiff announced that he had had a vision of great destruction and desolation coming for mankind. He’s not the first.

FATHER OLIVEIRA: On Feb. 11, 2020, a Brazilian priest had a vision in which he saw Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI die in 2022, which has happened. He also saw what Pope Francis may be facing. [8:32] – I was most struck by the time line in the vision, which started with 2022 and ended in 2029.

My regular readers will remember me harping on the importance of HY5783 (September 26, 2022 to September 15, 2023) being a Jubilee year. The links are below if you want to refresh your memory about the meaning of a Jubilee year and the fact that it is simultaneously the 50th year, following seven sevens of shemitah cycles and that it is the 1st year of what may be the last shemitah cycle of all. The seventh or shemitah year of this cycle will start on September 21, 2028 and end on September 9, 2029.

GARABANDAL: Following the death of Pope John XXIII, Conchita (one of the Garabandal seers) received a message from Our Blessed Mother. “After this pope, there are only three left. Then [it will be] the end of times.”

Soon after, she noted that there would another who would govern the Church for such a short time that she wasn’t counting him. The uncounted pope was, of course, John Paul I, who died on September 28, 1978, just 33 days after his coronation. The three popes Our Lady referred to then were Paul VI, John Paul II and Benedict XVI.

Fr. José Luis Saavedra points out that the Spanish word Our Lady used for “then” does not mean “immediately.” Perhaps “then” covers the 9 years, 9 months, and 18 days between March 13, 2013, when Jorge Cardinal Bergoglio became Pope Francis and December 31, 2022, when Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI died and questions of Francis’ legitimacy became moot.

ST. MALACHY: In 1595, a Benedictine published a prophecy that he attributed to St. Malachy, the 12th-century Archbishop of Armagh. It consists of short, cryptic Latin phrases that allege to name all the popes until the end of time. It has been dismissed for centuries as a forgery, owing largely to the fact that the popes listed before 1595 were described in ways that are easy to understand, while the ones after are cryptic.

However, some analysts note the significant change in style between the two groups may suggest that the first group is a post-dated forgery, while the second group is genuine prophecy. And lately, with End Times stuff popping up all over, people have gotten interested in the list again. Here are the cryptic Latin phrases, translations, and proposed interpretations for the popes since 1963.

108: Flos florum > Flower of flowers – Pope Paul VI (1963-78). His papal crest had three fleurs-de-lis on it.

109: De medietate lunæ > On the half moon – Pope John Paul I (1978). His given name, Albino, means white, like the light of the moon. And perhaps the half moon refers to the brevity of his reign.

110: De labore solis > From the labor of the sun or Of the eclipse of the sun – Pope John Paul II (1978–2005). There were solar eclipses on both the day of his birth (May 18, 1920) and the day of his funeral (April 8, 2005).

111: Gloria oliuæ > Glory of the olive – Pope Benedict XVI (2005 – 2013). Pope Benedict XVI explained his reasons for choosing the name Benedict. “Firstly, I remember Pope Benedict XV, that courageous prophet of peace, who guided the Church through turbulent times of war. In his footsteps, I place my ministry in the service of reconciliation and harmony between peoples.” Olives, of course, are a symbol of peace.

112: In p[er]ſecutione. extrema S.R.E. ſedebit. Petrus Romanus, qui paſcet oues in multis tribulationibus: quibus tranſactis ciuitas ſepticollis diruetur, & Iudex tremẽdus iudicabit populum ſuum. Finis. > In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church, there will sit. Peter the Roman, who will pasture his sheep in many tribulations, and when these things are finished, the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the dreadful judge will judge his people. The End.” – Pope Francis (2013-Present). Skeptics point to the apparent lack of any connection between Jorge Mario/Francis and Peter the Roman. I’d love to know what his Confirmation name was, but I didn’t find it anywhere. IF he is Peter the Roman, perhaps it merely refers to the first pope, St. Peter, and the fact that Bergoglio, who was born and served in Argentina, became a Roman when he accepted the post of Bishop of Rome.

WISCONSIN: Election Watch, a Wisconsin election integrity watchdog organization, has discovered that more than 150,000 votes cast in the 2020 presidential election cannot be connected with a valid address.

Of these, 45,000 involved people who were living out of state. Former Wisconsin resident Jacob Alldredge says he allegedly voted in Wisconsin. But he had moved to, registered in, and cast his vote in Tennessee. IOW, somebody stole his name and cast a fraudulent ballot.

Biden allegedly won Wisconsin’s electoral votes by less than 21,000 votes.

GRAMMY NOTES: When I was young and single, I drove a school bus. When I was between runs, one of the single guys asked me to ride along with him. He was kind of a jerk, so I don’t know why I went. But I did.

He dropped off his little group of kindergartners for their afternoon half-day, then carelessly got his bus into a bad spot where he would have to back up … something we were taught to avoid, because buses have such enormous blind spots behind them.

This moron started to just slam the bus into reverse when I said, “Wait! I’ll spot you!” and ran to the back of the bus. A late-leaving morning kindergartner was walking across the parking lot, likely on his way home for lunch. It shook me deeply to know how close that innocent little boy came to being killed that day.

I’ve thought of that so often since then and wondered about how much evil God prevents that we don’t know about!

Praying for the Souls in Purgatory

The Chaplet of Divine Mercy adapted for use with St. Michael beads

Begin with the Sign of the Cross.

On the St. Michael medal, recite the St. Michael prayer:

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

On the tail, recite the Creed on the first single bead, then do a “Power Pack” (i.e., Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be) on the next three beads.

On the first of each of the 9 sets of chaplet beads

Eternal Father, I offer You the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for the sins of [intention] in Purgatory.”

On each of the 3 beads following: “For the sake of His Sorrowful Passion, have mercy on them.”

On the chain before the next single bead: “Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on them.”

Intentions: You can leave it generic and just say “the poor souls,” but you can also specify groups of people who are on your heart. If I don’t have anything in particular, I like to let God bring images into my mind. Doing this has led me to pray for first responders, electricians, dental hygienists, and rice farmers.

After finishing the chaplet:

Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase your mercy in us that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself.

End with the Sign of the Cross.
