Prayer to Blessed Guido Maramaldi


Grant, we beseech Thee, almighty God, that the examples of Blessed Guido Maramaldi may effectually move us to reform our lives; that while we celebrate his feast, we may also imitate his actions. Look upon our weakness, almighty God, and since the burden of our own deeds weighs heavily upon us, may the glorious intercession of Blessed Guido Maramaldi protect us. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
