First Day
 |
St.
Martin, you always had sympathy for the poor and those who were suffering. I need your
help and now ask for it with great confidence in your goodness and power. Please remember
me, as you adore God. Amen. (Mention your petitions, followed by the Our Father, Hail
Mary, Glory Be and Closing Prayer.)
Closing Prayer: Dear St. Martin, I turn to you in my sorrow and anxiety to seek your
friendly protection. Please intercede for me with our merciful Father in heaven so that I
may be truly sorry for all my sins and be freed from the evils that shackle me. Ask that I
might have something of your spirit of love and self-sacrifice, and so be at all times
reconciled to God's holy will. Oh heavenly Father, in the name of your Son and of His
blessed Mother, and by the merits of your faithful servant Martin, help me in my trouble
and do not forsake me. Amen. |
Second Day

St.
Martin, we praise God for the manifestation of His love. The favors you received from God
encourage us now to seek your intercession and help. We ask you most humbly to befriend
and assist us from your place in heaven; but most of all, we beg you to commend us to our
beloved Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. (Petitions, Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be
and Closing Prayer.)
Closing Prayer: Dear St. Martin, I turn to you in my sorrow and anxiety to seek your

and do not forsake me. Amen. |
Third Day
 |
Brother Martin, when you were here on earth, you spent
your life loving God and your neighbor. This we know from the testimony of your own
Dominican brethren. Now that you live in the presence of God in paradise, intercede for
those who stand so much in need of the healing help of God and beg the Divine Physician to
give us health of the soul and body. Amen. (Petitions, Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be
and Closing Prayer.)
