Prayer to St. Bernadette

O Saint Bernadette, who, as a meek and pure child, did eighteen times at Lourdes contemplate the beauty of the Immaculate Mother of God and received her messages, and who afterwards wished to hide yourself from the world in the convent of Nevers, and to offer thyself there as a victim for the conversion of sinners, obtain for us the grace of purity, simplicity and mortification that we also may attain to the vision of God and of Mary in Heaven. Amen.

Prayer to St. Bernadette during suffering 

“O Jesus, Jesus,” she prayed, “I no longer feel my cross when I think of yours.” If you’re suffering today, pray this excerpt of one of her prayers:
Let the crucifix be not only in my eyes and on my breast, but in my heart.
O Jesus! Release all my affections and draw them upwards.Let my crucified heart sink forever into Thine and bury itself in the mysterious wound made by the entry of the lance.

Prayer to St. Bernadette

In Lourdes You experienced the joys and trials of family life, you saw Mary eighteen times at the rock, you called the sinners to penance, the priests to edify the Church of God, the pilgrims to come in procession, you reported the name of Mary, the Immaculate Conception, you desired ardently to receive the Body of the Lord, and to live of it you knew shame and suspicion, mockery and humiliation, you bore witness to what you saw and believed with such determination, you answered the call of the Lord.

With you Bernadette, WE go to the Grotto, to contemplate Mary, full of grace, to hear her say ‘Do whatever he tells you’. With you Bernadette, WE reply I promise, I will. Saint Bernadette teach us to receive the good news.

With you Bernadette, WE wish to hear the call of penance, to walk in the path of conversion, To live in humility.

With you Bernadette, WEtake up our Cross, we say ‘Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners’.With you Bernadette, WE go and wash at the springs of mercy.

With you Bernadette, WE say Yes to the will of God, by becoming
servants of the little ones, the poor and the sick.

With you Bernadette, WE look on the other as a person.
Saint Bernadette, teach us to love and to serve.

With you Bernadette, WE go to meet the Lord in the Eucharist.
WE go to drink at the Spring of the Living Water of the Word of God.

WE go in procession, together as a Church in the footsteps of Christ.

With you Bernadette, WE shall go and repeat the Name of the Lady
to the World, ‘I am the Immaculate Conception’.

Saint Bernadette, teach us to pray to Mary each day,
Mother of God and our Mother: ‘Hail Mary, full of Grace’.

O Mary conceived without sin pray for us who have recourse to you.
Our Lady of Lourdes pray for us.
Saint Bernadette pray for us.

Prayer of St. Bernadette

“Let the crucifix be not only in my eyes and on my breast, but in my heart.O Jesus! Release all my affections and draw them upwards. Let my crucified heart sink forever into Thine and bury itself in the mysterious wound made by the entry of the lance.”

Prayer of St. Bernadette

“O Jesus, give me I pray … the bread of humility, the bread of obedience, the bread of charity, the bread of strength to break my will, and make it one with yours, the bread of patience to bear the pain my heart endures,
the bread to see you and you alone in all things and always!” “I put my hope in you, Lord.  Be my house of refuge because you are my strength.” “He is sufficient for me … Jesus alone for wealth.” Amen.
