The following is the prayer for making spiritual communion:

My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all things and I desire to receive you into my soul. Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there, and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.

As we approach the new calendar year, it may be worth making a New Year’s resolution to help grow in the faith.

For example: 
Have you ever wanted to read through the Catechism of the Catholic Church? Would you prefer to have someone read it to you and provide a reflection? If so, Father Neil has a podcast where he does this. To find it, you can go to: https://www.fatherneil.com/

Are you interested in praying with Scripture? Do you want to read through the Bible? Father Mike Schmitz is hosting "The Bible In A Year," which has different episodes that include: two to three scripture readings, a reflection from Fr. Mike Schmitz, and guided prayer to help you hear God’s voice in his Word. The New Year can be a good time to start from episode 1 and read through the whole Bible in a year.

You can also find "The Bible In A Year" on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and other platforms (see https://ascensionpress.com/pages/biy-registration).
