By your intercession O blessed Agatha, may I ever enjoy your protection by faithfully witnessing to Christ. You invite all who come to you to enjoy the treasure of communion with the Holy Trinity. Moreover, if it be for God's greater glory and the good of my person, please intercede for me with the request of [mention request here].

Saint Agatha, you found favor with God by your chastity and by your courage in suffering death for the gospel. Teach me how to suffer with cheerfulness, uniting myself to Christ crucified with a simplicity and purity of heart. Amen.

Saint Agatha, eloquent witness of Jesus Christ as Savior, pray for us.

Saint Agatha, the martyr who says to Jesus, "possess all that I am," pray for us.

Saint Agatha, concerned with the welfare of all God's children, pray for us.

Saint Agatha, pray for us.

Please remember my friend Alyson who needs a masectomy. She need prayers to get thru this. Thank you.

I beg the Lord for the graces your Alyson needs to confront reality head-on and for a cure.

Peace!

Lord Jesus, please be by Dana's side today as she begins this journey into breast cancer treatment. Give her the strength to manage this disease and through your merciful love be healed.

AMEN
