Prayer to Saint Louis-Marie Grignon de Montfort
O great apostle of the kingdom, you who taught that the secret of holiness, the perfect way of Mary “to Jesus through Mary” is the same way God wants to come to us and bring us back to Himself. Obtain for us the grace to practice a true devotion to Our Lady until guided and supported by Her, our Mother and Mediatrix, we can grow in charity and in faith to achieve salvation.
Apostle of the Cross, the fact of not having a cross was your biggest cross; intercede for us perseverance in our trials and tribulations, and a spirit of sacrifice and service that will make us similar to Christ Crucified.
Tireless Evangelist, instill in us too, that missionary spirit that pushed you to work with passion and with joy to be able to build anywhere the Reign of God.
Father of the poor, of the sick and abandoned, who saw in the least of all, the image of Jesus Christ. Obtain for us true charity so that we may assist our brothers in their difficulties.
Saint Louis Grignion de Montfort, pray for us!
