Saint Pius X Sodality For Boys Prayers
“Saints never grow old,- Pope John Paul II – Lisieux, 1980
they never become figures of the past,
men and women of “yesterday”.
On the contrary, they are always
men and women of the future,
witnesses of the world to come.”
"I was born poor; I lived poor; I wish to die poor."- The will of Pope St Pius X.
Prayer to Saint Pius X
Saint Pius X, Pope of the Eucharist, you sought "to restore all things in Christ." Obtain for me a true love of Jesus so that I may live only for Him. Help me to obtain a strong desire and a sincere will to strive for holiness of life, and that I may receive the riches of the Holy Eucharist. By your love for Mary, mother and queen of all, inflame my heart with tender devotion to her.
Blessed model of the priesthood, obtain for us holy and dedicated priests, and increase vocations to the religious life. Dispel confusion and hatred and anxiety, and incline our hearts to peace so that all nations will place themselves under the reign of Christ. Amen.
