Prayer to Saint Kateri Tekakwitha St. Kateri Tekakwitha, favored child and Lily of the Mohawks, I come to seek

your intercession in my present need: (mention it). I admire the virtues which

adorned your soul: love of God and neighbor, humility, obedience, patience, purity

and the spirit of sacrifice. Help me to imitate your example in my state of life.

Through the goodness and mercy of God, Who has blessed you with so many graces

which led you to the true faith and to a high degree of holiness, pray to God for me

and help me.

Obtain for me a very fervent devotion to the Holy Eucharist so that I may love

Holy Mass as you did and receive Holy Communion as often as I can. Teach me

also to be devoted to my crucified Savior as you were, that I may cheerfully bear

my daily crosses for love of Him Who suffered so much for love of me. Most of

all, I beg you to pray for me that I may avoid sin, lead a holy life and save my

soul. Amen.
