Prayer in Honor of St. Catherine of Siena
Heavenly Father, your glory is in your saints. We praise your glory
in the life of the admirable St. Catherine of Siena, virgin and
doctor of the Church. Her whole life was a noble sacrifice inspired
by an ardent love of Jesus, your unblemished Lamb. In troubled times
she strenuously upheld the rights of His beloved spouse, The Church.
Father, honor her merits and hear her prayers for each of us, and
for our whole parish family dedicated to her. Help us to pass
unscathed through the corruption of this world, and to remain
unshakably faithful to the church in word, deed, and example. Help
us always to see in the Vicar of Christ an anchor in the storms of
life, and a beacon of light to the harbor of your Love, in this dark
night of your times and men's souls. Grant also to each of us our
special petition . . . (pause to pray for your own intentions). We
ask this through Jesus, your Son, in the bond of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
St. Catherine of Siena, Pray for us.
