Novena Litany To Venerable Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo
Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo, listen to us
You whose presence we feel in our families, schools, retreat houses, and land, hear us.
You who taught us to pray the rosary everyday to stay with Christ, hear us.
Mother Ignacia, pray for us.
Daughter of St. Ignatius of Loyola in the Spiritual Life, pray for us.
Bride of Christ from early youth unto all eternity, pray for us.
Mother Ignacia, we love you.
A child of humble parents, like Jesus of Nazareth, we love you.
A young girl who made a retreat before making the first big decision of her life, we love you.
The young woman who prepared herself by living alone with Christ in a house of prayer we love you.
The young woman who supported herself by working with needle and a pair of scissors, we love you.
The woman of faith who built her community around the Eucharist, we love you.
The woman of hope who relied on the providence of God for daily salt and rice, we love you.
The woman of hope who gathered sticks and firewood to cook her community's meals, we love you.
The woman of hope who led her community through poverty and daunting obstacles, we love you.
The woman of love fully aware that love is shown in deeds, we love you.
The woman of love whose goal is to love God by praising, reverencing, and serving him every moment of her life, we love you.
The woman of love whose loveliness is the loveliness of Christ nailed to the cross, we love you.
The founding Superior who insisted on abdicating the power to command and wanting only to be anonymous and be the servant of all, we love you.
The founding Superior at whose death and funeral the whole city turned out in grief to show its respect and love for her, and gratitude for opening its eyes to the values of the Kingdom of God, we love you.
Beloved Mother Ignacia, whose community never ceased drawing its strength and fire from the Paschal Mystery of Christ, we love you.
Beloved Mother Ignacia, whose community started to attract and receive women of all nationalities and continues to attract and receive them in our day, we love you.
Beloved Mother Ignacia, whose community built and continues to build other communities to shelter the poor of the land and proclaim the Kingdom of God until the Lord returns, we love you.
Let us pray
O God Our Father, look upon our love for Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo, a love which you yourself have instilled in our hearts and continue to nurture in the power of your Holy Spirit. Look also upon our faith and hope as we present to you our petition for a miracle for her beatification: (Petition)
We ask this in the name of your Son, Our Brother and Savior, who has encouraged us, saying:"Whatever you ask the Father in my name, He will give it to you." Amen.
(1 Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be for the intentions of the Holy Father).
