Ave Maria Meditations
NOVENA TO SAINT PETER JULIAN EYMARD
Saint Peter Julian, who received the great privilege of so perfectly knowing what treasures are ours in the Most Blessed Sacrament, of being all afire with seraphic love for It, and of consecrating unto It your untiring zeal that It might be perpetually adored and glorified by all mankind, we beg of you to obtain for us the spiritual and temporal favors of which we stand in need.
Obtain for us particularly to become, in imitation of you, faithful adorers in spirit and in truth of the Most Blessed Sacrament, while tending ever more toward the acquiring of Christian virtue, above all, of sincere humility. Thus we hope to live that life of union with Our Lord which was the aim of your constant zeal, as it is the principal effect on Holy Communion in our souls.
Finally, Saint Peter Julian, obtain for us your own filial devotion toward Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament, that we may learn from that dear Divine Mother how to serve and adore on earth Our Savior hidden in His Sacrament, and thus come to adore and glorify Him unveiled in heaven. Amen
Say 1 Our Father…
Say 1 Hail Mary…
Say 1 Glory Be…
O Sacrament most holy, O Sacrament divine. All Praise and all thanksgiving be every moment Thine
Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament, pray for us.
Saint Peter Julian, pray for us.
St. Peter Julian Eymard was the founder of the Blessed Sacrament Fathers and was also a Third Order Franciscan. His Feast Day is August 2nd.
