In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. 

Amen.

Dear Lord, we thank You for giving us St. Lucy as an example of holiness. Help us to imitate the virtue she showed in asking You to change her mother’s heart.

St. Lucy, your mother wanted you to marry and arranged a marriage for you. You wanted to remain a consecrated virgin, so you asked God to hear your prayers and to change your mother’s heart.

Please ask God to hear my prayers!

You prayed at the tomb of St. Agatha and asked her to intercede for you. She appeared to you in a dream and said that your mother would be healed. When your mother was healed as St. Agatha foretold, your mother agreed to allow you to remain a consecrated virgin.

Pray for me, that I may turn to God with as much confidence as you did. Pray that I may grow in my faith and trust in God.

Please also pray for (mention your intentions here).

St. Lucy, pray for us!

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. 

Amen.
