The Litany of the Most Precious Blood gives us a poignant reminder of not only the Passion but also of the good our Lord’s Blood can do for us as the “Eucharistic drink and refreshment of souls”.
St. Peter reminds us of its importance when he writes. “You were redeemed not with perishable things like silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ” (1 Peter 1:18-19). As our Lord Himself said, His blood would be shed for “the forgiveness of sins” (Matt 26:28).
May the Litany of the Most Precious Blood throughout the month of July inspire you in your efforts to receive Him worthily in Communion and to have Him fortify you in your efforts to serve Him and others on your journey towards Eternal Life!
We have included along with the Litany the meditation on The Seven Sheddings of the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Each day of the week has a suggested meditation as a preparation for the praying of this beautiful Litany; the document can be downloaded by clicking the link here below:
