ST. KATHARINE DREXEL'S MOTTO "Ours is the Spirit of the Eucharist the total gift of self"
O love of the Sacred Heart! O my Jesus how good you are! You are foresaken upon the cross and deprived of everykind of consolation, yet you deal so mercifully with me a sinner. Lord, willingly do I entrust myself to your loving heart, wholly do I resign myself to your will. Carry out the designs of your Heart: cleanse me, sanctify me, dear Lord from every sin. O Mother of Jesus in every temtation and danger assist me. O my Mother keep me faithful to Jesus.
