O marvelous wonder of the Church, seraphic virgin Saint Catherine, because of your extraordinary virtue and the immense good which you accomplished for the Church and society, you are acclaimed and blessed by all people. By the sheer force of your personality you converted thousands, and the mere sight of you melted the hearts of hardened sinners. O Saint Catherine, inspire me to reach into the lives of others and influence them for good, so that your name will be ever blessed and exalted. I call upon you with all my affection and beg you to obtain by you prayers, the favors I so ardently need and desire. Amen.
