Prayer to St. Maria Goretti

Traditional prayer to the patroness of purity (canonized 1950 by Pope Pius XII)

O Saint Maria Goretti, who, strengthened by God's grace, did not hesitate at the age of twelve to shed thy blood and sacrifice thy life to defend thy virginal purity, look graciously on the unhappy human race which has strayed far from the path of eternal salvation. Teach us all, and especially the young, with what courage and promptitude we should flee for the love of Jesus anything that could offend Him or stain our souls with sin. Obtain for us from Our Lord victory in temptation, comfort in the sorrows of life, and the grace which we earnestly beg of thee. Amen.

Prayer to St. Joseph for Purity

Traditional Catholic prayer to St. Joseph, most chaste spouse of the Virgin Mary

O Guardian of Virgins, and holy Father Joseph, to whose faithful custody Christ Jesus, Innocence itself, and Mary, the Virgin of virgins, were committed; I pray and beseech thee, by these dear pledges, Jesus and Mary, that being preserved from all uncleanness, I may with a spotless mind, pure heart, and chaste body ever serve Jesus and Mary most chastely. Amen.
