St. Anthony of Padua,
Glorious for your miracles
And for the condescension of Jesus,
in coming as a little child
to repose in your arms,
obtain for me from His bounty,
the grace which I ardently desire.
You who were so compassionate towards sinners,
regard not my unworthiness,
but the glory of God,
that it may be magnified by you
in connection with the particular request
which I now earnestly present to you.
(Mention your other intentions here…)
As a pledge of my gratitude,
I beg you to accept my promise
to live more faithfully in accordance with
the teachings of the Church,
and to be devoted to the service of the poor
whom you loved and still love so greatly.
Bless this my resolution,
that I may be faithful to it
even until death.
St. Anthony, consoler of all the afflicted,
Pray for me.
St. Anthony, whom the infant Jesus
so much loved and honoured,
Pray for me.
Amen.
