Novena to Ven. M. Maria Celeste of the Most Holy Savior

O God, 
who bestowed on Mother Maria Celeste 
the grace of a most intimate communion
in the mystery of your beloved Son's 
death and resurrection, 
we beg you
to glorify your handmaid,
to grant us the request we make to you 
through her intercession,
and to teach us to cooperate, as she did,
in the fulfillment of 
your admirable Plan of Redemption.
Grant this
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

"Glory be to the Father ..." (three times)
"Hail Mary" (once)



Alternate prayer:

O Most Holy Trinity,
I adore You from the depth of my nothingness
and I thank you 
for the gifts and privileges
bestowed on your servant Mother Maria Celeste.
I pray you
to will her glorification even here on earth
and for this, I beg you to grant me,
through her intercession,
that grace which I humbly desire
from your paternal mercy.
Grant this through Christ our Lord.
Amen


"Glory be to the Father ..." (three times)
"Hail Mary" (once)



United to all Redemptoristines throughout the world during these days of preparation for her feast on September 14th, let us pray through the intercession of our Mother Maria Celeste that we may receive a double portion of her spirit in order to become, like her, living portraits of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer in today's world.
