Holy Cards

Beginning with a general prayer for those who have been entrusted with Notre Dame's Catholic mission distributed to the guests at our 2016 Annual Breakfast, we continue to publish holy cards on topics that are timely and of relevance to Notre Dame's Catholic identity. Some of those are available here for download with printing instructions. If you have joined our Apostolate, you will receive new holy cards as they are published.

1942 Student Prayer Book

To thee, O Star of the Sea,
from the waves of this life I lift my eyes;
guide my soul, and show me a course
whereupon I may serve our Divine Master,
and at last reach the port of our heavenly country,
through Jesus Christ Our Lord. Amen.
