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 devotion to You she showed in holding fast to her Faith despite the terrible sufferings of having her eyes gouged out.

St. Lucy, tradition says that you told the governor he would pay for his evil actions. This made the governor so angry that he ordered your eyes to be gouged out. But you remained steadfast to your Faith despite this suffering.

Please bring my petitions before God with such steadfastness!

You endured many sufferings for your Faith, but you refused to turn away from God. You ultimately chose to give up your life for God.

Pray for me, that I may never allow the threat of sufferings or death to deter me from serving God. Pray that I may be willing to suffer anything for the sake of my Faith.

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.
