Prayer for day 9
Prayer to Saint Catherine Labouré O Saint Catherine Labouré, whose filial confidence in the Blessed Virgin obtained for thee the privilege of seeing and speaking with her here on earth, obtain for us a faith like thine in her maternal love. Grant that we may understand and cherish the value of humble silence, and gain grace to show humility in our actions. Teach us to fulfill faithfully the duties of our state, that we may at last enjoy with thee the happiness of beholding the Immaculate Mother of God. Amen. Collect for Saint Catherine Labouré O Lord Jesus Christ, who didst strengthen the virgin Saint Catherine through a wondrous vision of thy Immaculate Mother: grant, we beseech thee, that following the example of her loving devotion, we may so honor thy holy Mother as to gain the joys of eternal life. Who livest and reignest with the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
Saint Catherine Labouré, faithful Daughter of Charity, pray for us.
