Prayer for Purity
Mary, loving daughter of God the Father, I entrust my soul to you. Protect the life of God in my soul. Do not let me lose it by sin. Protect my mind and my will so that all my thoughts and desires will be pleasing to God. Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen. Mary, loving Mother of God the Son, I entrust my heart to you. Let me always remember that my body is a home for the Holy Spirit who dwells in me. Let me never sin against him by any impure actions alone or with others. Hail Mary… St. Joseph, pray for us. St. Raphael the Archangel, pray for us. St. Maria Goretti, pray for us. Amen.
