PRAYERS TO OUR LADY

Prayer to Saint Germaine Cousin

O Saint Germaine, look down from Heaven and intercede for the many abused children in our world. Help them to sanctify these sufferings. Strengthen children who suffer the effects of living in broken families. Protect those children who have been abandoned by their parents and live in the streets. Beg God's mercy on the parents who abuse their children. Intercede for handicapped children and their parents.

Saint Germaine, you who suffered neglect and abuse so patiently, pray for us. Amen.

Another Prayer to Saint Germaine

Remember, O sweet Germaine, your brothers and sisters who groan and who suffer in this vale of tears. Remember those who hope in you, who await your help with their trials, your consolation in their sorrows. Remember that you, too, groaned, that you, too, cried, that you, too, knew poverty, isolation, humiliation, and suffering. And now, in your glory, remember our miseries; in your power remember our infirmities; in your happiness, remember our tears. Teach us, in your school of sweetness, of your patience, your faith, and your love. Then, at our deaths, receive us into our eternal home.
