Our Lady of Lourdes Patronal Feast Day, February 11

O ever Immaculate Virgin, Mother of Mercy, Health of the Sick, Refuge of Sinners, Comfort to the Afflicted, you know my wants, my troubles, my sufferings. Cast upon me a look of mercy. By appearing in the Grotto of Lourdes, you were pleased to make it a privileged sanctuary, where you dispense your favours; and already many sufferers have obtained the cure of their infirmities, both spiritual and corporal. I come, therefore, with the most unbounded confidence to implore your maternal intercession. Obtain, O loving Mother, the granting of my requests. (name request) Through gratitude of favors, I will endeavor to imitate your virtues that I may one day share your glory. Amen Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for us. Amen (Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be.)
