Pray to Santa Maria Goretti and ask for a grace

O little Maria Goretti who sacrificed your life to keep your virginity unbound and who, dying, forgave your killer by promising to pray for him from Heaven, help us to overcome ourselves in the difficult journey of this world so deeply upset by the most violent passions. Get us the grace of the purity of the customs and that of a great love for our brothers.

You who, out of a humble peasant family, for your heroic victory over evil and glorious martyrdom, flew to Heaven with the halo of holiness, obtain peace, faith, fruitful work in a new atmosphere of charity, obtaining for us from the Lord all the graces necessary for our spiritual and material good, for our earthly and eternal life. In particular, obtain the grace that is dear to us at the moment ... Amen.
