- Our Parish Prayer
  
  Loving and generous God, in Baptism you call us each by name. We praise You for your goodness, we thank You for your gifts to us; We ask You to guide us so that we will live in love and service to others, after the example of your Son, Jesus. Look upon your people of St. Gerard's Parish with love. Bless your church with faith-filled missionary disciples, in a community that welcomes and celebrates everyone. You call us to build your kingdom on earth by serving one another with love. During this time of Parish Renewal, help us to know your will and to do what is required as we journey with you. Strengthen us, Holy Spirit, make us faithful signs of your presence in our world. Amen.

  Prayer for Pope Leo XIV
  Prayer for the Pope.
  O God, shepherd and ruler of all the faithful,
  look favorably on your servant Leo XIV,
  whom you have set at the head of your Church as her shepherd; grant, we pray, that by word and example he may be of service to those over whom he presides
  so that, together with the flock entrusted to his care,
  he may come to everlasting life.
  Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
  who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
  God, for ever and ever. Amen.

- The Glorious Mysteries
  
  Man is You! men's program The series began out of Mark Hartfiel’s desire to deepen his spiritual life as a father and husband, which included taking steps to protect his family from evil. Saint Padre Pio said, “The Rosary is the ‘weapon’ for these times,” and Hartfiel took that to heart, ultimately becoming convicted to pray the ancient prayers of the Rosary daily. It was through his daily Rosary that the idea came to him to create and film a series that takes viewers right to the Holy Land, right where these Mysteries actually happened.
