Prayer to St Pio of Pietrelcina
O God, You gave St Pio of Pietrelcina, Capuchin priest, the great privilege of participating, in a unique way, in the passion of Your Son. Grant us, through his intercession, the graces which we ardently desire, and above all, grant the grace of living in conformity with the death of Jesus, to arrive at the glory of the resurrection.
Glory be to the Father.........3 times
Memorare
Remember, O most compassionate Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence we fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, our Mother. To you we come, before you we kneel, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate despise not our petitions, but in your clemency hear and answer them. Amen
Prayer to St. Michael
St. Michael Holy Michael, the Archangel, defend us in the day of battle. Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray and do thou prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust down Satan and all wicked spirits who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen
Prayer for England
O Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God and our most gentle Queen and Mother, look down on England thy dowry and upon us all who greatly hope and trust in thee. By thee it was that Jesus, our Saviour, and our hope, was given unto the world, and He has given thee to us that we might hope still more. Plead for us, thy children, whom thou didst receive and accept at the foot of the cross, O Sorrowful Mother. Intercede for our separated brethren, that with us in the one true fold they may be united to the Chief Shepherd, the Vicar of thy Son. Pray for us all, dear Mother, that by faith fruitful in good works, we may all deserve to see and praise God together with thee in our heavenly home. Amen
