Let us begin, In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Oh Holy Spirit, descend upon us. Pour out Your gifts upon us and strengthen us in faith. Guide us with the hope for the Kingdom of Heaven. Enkindle our hearts with the fire of Divine love. Just as You led St. Alphonsa along the path of sanctity, lead us also on the path of righteousness. Grant us the grace to grow in sanctity and wisdom by serving you faithfully in humility and gentleness.
Celebrant: With joy and hope in our hearts, let us pray “Lord hear our prayer.”
All: Lord, hear our prayer.
Celebrant: Lord, You raised St. Alphonsa to the host of the Saint, fill us with the spirit of prayer and sacrifice.
All: Lord, hear our prayer.
Celebrant: Lord, grant us the grace to see the hand of God in all our sufferings and sorrows, like St. Alphonsa who bore witness to You through her sufferings and self-sacrifice.
All: Lord, hear our prayer.
Celebrant: Lord Jesus, you offered Yourself as a victim on the cross for us sinners. St. Alphonsa imitated You by offering herself as a Victim on your altar. Grant us the strength and grace to offer ourselves to You every moment as a burnt offering, like this holy sister.
All: Lord, hear our prayer.
Celebrant: Lord Jesus, at the moment of Your death and agony You prayed to the Father saying: “Not my will but Thy will be done.” St. Alphonsa also imitated You praying in the same fashion. Help us to see You in our superiors and do Your will in all circumstances.
All: Lord, hear our prayer.
Prayer
Merciful and benevolent god, we offer ourselves completely to You. We give you thanks for all the blessings You shower upon us. Forgive us our sins and offenses. Lord, You gave us St. Alphonsa as our model and mediator. We seek her intercession now. Protect us from all evils, spiritual and material. Fill us with Your blessings. We make this prayer in Your name, Father, Son and the Holy Spirit.
