Protecting Purity: Why am I Catholic !!!

Our Blessed Mother

Mary, loving Daughter of God the Father, I give my soul to your care. Protect the life of God in my soul. Do not let me lose it by serious sin. Protect my mind and my will so that all my thoughts and desires will be pleasing to God. Hail Mary... Mary, loving Mother of God the Son, I give my heart to your care. Let me love you with all my heart. Let me always try to love my neighbor. And help me avoid friends who might lead me away from Jesus and into a life of sin. Hail Mary... Mary, loving Spouse of the Holy Spirit, I give my body to your care. Let me always remember that my body is a home for the Holy Spirit who dwells in me. Let me never sin against Him by any impure actions alone or with others, against the virtue of purity. Hail Mary...

St. Joseph

St. Joseph, head of the Holy Family and earthly guardian of our Lord Jesus Christ, I pray, through the power of your special intercession, for God to grant me the strength, guidance, insight and discernment to always be the best husband/wife that I can be, the best father/mother that I can be, the best son/daughter that I can be, the best worker that I can be, the purest soul that I can be, so that all of my labors, all of my thoughts, words and deeds may ceaselessly give glory to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.This we ask in Jesus' name. Amen

St. Maria Gorretti

Oh Saint Maria Goretti who, strengthened by God's grace, did not hesitate even at the age of twelve to shed your blood and sacrifice life itself to defend your virginal purity, look graciously on the unhappy human race which has strayed far from the path of eternal salvation. Teach us all, and especially youth,with what courage and promptitude we should flee for the love of Jesus anything that could offend Him or stain our souls with sin. Obtain for us from our Lord victory in temptation, comfort in the sorrows of life, and the grace which we earnestly beg of thee (here insert intention), and may we one day enjoy with thee the imperishable glory of Heaven. Amen.
