O Lord, please allow me to serve You faithfully in this holy congregation, every day of my life. You are truly worthy of being served in all ways, worthy of all honors and of eternal praise. You are truly My Lord and my Patron, and I am but Your poor servant, bound to serve You with all my strength. This is my wish, this is my desire… O Holy of holies, ocean of grace, Most Holy and Immaculate Virgin, Mother of God, grant me the strength to accomplish perfectly on this day that which I have promised Your Son. Direct and protect me in every hour and every minute.
Blessed Lorenzo Salvi
