St. Maria Goretti, patron saint of purity.
You lived a life of goodness and obedience.
You always kept an open heart and mind
especially when others were unkind to you.
Graced by God’s strength,
you were loving and forgiving in return.
St. Maria Goretti, help us to model
your courage and faith in our daily lives,
through our thoughts, words and actions.
Guide us to live a life of purity,
obedience and kindness.
Through your intercession,
and with God’s grace,
guide us in responding to our Baptismal Call
by praying, serving and forgiving.
We ask this through Christ Our Lord.
Amen
