March 6 – Saint Colette
Most Holy Jesus, when Saint Colette was born, her parents were nearly sixty years old and she became an orphan at seventeen. I lift up to You all those who have experienced the death of one or more of their parents, especially the little children. I ask Saint Colette to pray that they may come to know the embracing love of God the Father and the comforting love of the Blessed Mother. O God, send into their lives men and women who are earthly extensions of Your protection and the Blessed Mother’s nurturing spirit. And bring the healing love of Jesus to all who mourn. Saint Colette, pray for us. Amen.

Saint Colette (1381-1447)
If there be a true way that leads to the Everlasting Kingdom, it is most certainly that of suffering, patiently endured.”
