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.
