A 911 call receives immediate help. Therefore, we know any crisis whatsoever must submit to change, even against all odds, when granted by God through prayer. For immediately needed graces and urgent needs, the Caritas Community has used and adopted a special 911 prayer response:
Pray the Caritas 911 prayer in the following way:
State your needs or petitions.
9 times, pray the Memorare.
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,
That never was it known
That anyone who fled to Thy protection
Implored Thy help
Or sought Thy intercession,
was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence,
I fly unto Thee
O Virgin of virgins, my Mother.
To Thee I come, before Thee I stand,
sinful and sorrowful.
O Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
But in Thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.
1 time, pray the Rosary.
1 time, pray the Chaplet of Divine Mercy.
End by praying the following prayer 3 times:
O Blood and Water,
which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus
as a fount of mercy for us,
I trust in you.
