NOVENA TO SAINT MARIA GORETTI DAY 5
DAY 5 CONFIDENCE IN GOD
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen
Dear Little Saint, I depend a great deal upon the help of my friends in times of trouble or sorrow. I look for their approval in many things I do. I am disconsolate and lonely when they desert me. Through your powerful intercession in Heaven, obtain for me the grace to place all my confidence in God. Only by walking constantly in His presence and depending upon His help, will I have the courage to stand up for His laws, even though it may mean loss of friends, criticism, and complete removal of worldly comfort. Help me to look for all of my strength in Him. Amen.
Sweet Heart of Jesus, be my Love!
Sweet Heart of Mary, be my Salvation!
Recite the Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary (The Litany of Loreto)
Official Prayer to St Maria Goretti
Saint Mary Goretti, who, strengthened by God's grace, did not hesitate, even at the age of twelve, to shed your blood and sacrifice life itself to defend your virginal purity, look graciously on the unhappy human race, which has strayed far from the path of eternal salvation. Teach us all, and especially youth, with what courage and promptitude we should flee for the love of Jesus, anything that could offend Him or stain our souls with sin. Obtain for us from our Lord victory in temptation, comfort in the sorrows of life, and the grace which we earnestly beg of Thee, [State your intention here], and may we one day enjoy with Thee the imperishable glory of heaven. Amen
St Maria Goretti, Pray for us!
