Prayer:

by PaulaAnne Sharkey Lemire

Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha, bright star of love and faith,
Be my guide and guardian always.
Kateri, flower of purity and prayer,
Be my advocate before God, especially in my present need.
We ask this through Jesus Christ, Our Lord.
Amen.

O God, who among the many marvels of Your Grace in the New World did cause to blossom on the banks of the Mohawk and of the St. Lawrence, the pure and tender Lily, Kateri Tekakwitha, grant we beseech You, the favor we beg through Your intercession; that this Young Lover of Jesus and of His Cross may soon be counted among the Saints by Holy Mother Church, and that our hearts may be enkindled with a stronger desire to imitate her innocence and faith. Through the same Christ Our Lord.
Amen.
