O, Lord Jesus Christ, we implore Thee, O eternal God, to have mercy on all mankind, keeping us from all sin by Thy precious blood, and take us to be with Thee eternally.  Amen.

This prayer was sent by Bishop Lawrence recommending it to be recited and sent to nine other persons. He who will not say it will be affected by some misfortune. One person who paid not attention to it met with a dreadful accident. He who will recite this prayer for nine days and will send it or distribute it to nine other persons commencing on the day it is received and send only one each day will, on or after the ninth day, experience a great joy.  At Jerusalem it was heard said, "He who will recite this prayer will be delivered from every calamity."
Please don't break the chain.
