Prayer to St. Gianna Beretta Molla - Founding prayer 1
This prayer is one of the many prayers we prayed that has guided the founding of the foundation and was prayed before we founded it and throughout everything we do. We have prayed these prayers over the last 5 years… as we were discerning what direction to take with founding it, this prayer really helped us to see more clearly our next steps to found the foundation. Essentially, these are prayers our foundation were founded on and ones that our foundation lives by. As you can see the many prayers that we have prayed… each area of our foundation is covered in prayer, and all of these prayers helped us to found each area of our foundation and the services we offer.
God Our Father, we praise You and we bless You because in Saint Gianna Beretta Molla You have given us one who witnessed to the Gospel as a young woman, as a wife, as a mother, and as a doctor.
We thank You because through the gift of her life we can learn to welcome and honor every human person.
You Lord Jesus, were for Gianna a splendid example. She learned to recognize You in the beauty of nature. As she was questioning her choice of vocation she went in search of you and the best way to serve You. through her Married love she became a sign of your love for the Church and for humanity. Like you, the Good Samaritan, she cared for everyone who was sick, small, or weak. Following your example, out of love she gave herself entirely, generating new life.
Holy Spirit, Source of every perfection, give us wisdom, intelligence and courage so that, following the example of Saint Gianna and through her intercession, we may know how to place ourselves at the service of each person we meet in our personal, family, and professional lives, and thus grow in love and holiness.
