Novena St. Teresa of Jesus- October 11

"O most bountiful Lord Jesus Christ, we thank thee for the gift of devotion toward thy sweet Mother Mary, and her holy spouse Joseph, which thou did grant to thy beloved Teresa; we pray thee, by thy merits, and by those of thy most dear spouse to give us the grace of a special and tender devotion toward thy most holy Mother Mary, and toward thy beloved foster father, Joseph.

Our Father.. Hail Mary.. Glory be..

O Jesus, who Teresa's beauteous soul
With thy love-dart didst fire,
Deep in my heart of hearts
Her own sweet longing love of thee inspire.

St. Teresa, pray for us.
That we may become worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let Us Pray:
Graciously hear us, O God, our salvation! that as we rejoice in the commemoration of the blessed virgin Teresa (our Mother) , so we may be nourished by her heavenly doctrine, and draw from thence the fervor of a tender devotion , through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, who lives and reigns with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God forever and ever. Amen. "
