Tomorrow, October 13th, as well as being the
anniversary of Our Lady's Apparition and the Solar Miracle at Fatima, is also
the feast day of mystic and victim soul Blessed Alexandrina Maria da Costa.
Please
pray for her Canonization.
Blessed Alexandrina Maria da
Costa official novena prayer
O
Jesus, who art pleased with simple and humble persons, who are so often
ignored, forgotten and despised by men, raise to the glory of Thy altars Thy
humble Servant Alexandrina, who always desired to live hidden from the world
and aloof from its vanities and praises.
Thou
well knowest, Lord Jesus, how in our times there is need of lessons in
holiness, which is the true fulfillment of every human and Christian vocation
and, consequently, the elevation of a creature to the supreme height of moral
beauty.
Invest
then, O Jesus, Thy Servant with the immortal halo of glory and hear our
prayers, which we through her intercession offer to Thee; especially grant us
the favour which we ask (...here mention
your petition) if it be for the honour of Thy Blessed Name, the glory of
the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the salvation of sinners, on whose behalf the
pious Alexandrina so wholly and generously offered herself a victim. Amen.
