NOVENA TO ST. LUCY
DAY 07
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 refusing to offer pagan sacrifice and in holding fast to her Faith.
St. Lucy, you were persecuted because of your Christian Faith. Though you knew it could lead to your death, you held fast to your Faith and to your love for God.
Please bring my petitions before God Whom you loved so devotedly!
Tradition says that you were sentenced to be put in a brothel and that your eyes were gouged out. Though you faced terrible punishments and the threat of death, you refused to renounce your Faith.
Pray for me, that I may always have the fortitude to do what is right, no matter the cost. Pray that I may be ready to even give up my life for the Faith if necessary.
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.
