Day 1
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Admirable Saint Rose, you were truly a sweet flower blooming on a rugged soil.
You were indeed a rose among thorns, bearing, with meekness and patience, the stings of envious tongues, while preserving perfect purity and modesty amid the alluring blandishments of a deceitful world.
To the sufferings inflicted on you by others, St Rose of Lima, you added the voluntary tortures of fasting and watching, of a crown of thorns and of a hair shirt, to subdue the flesh and to make yourself like your heavenly Spouse.
By the merits you gained with your Divine Bridegroom, obtain for me the grace to bear my afflictions with patience, to remain pure and modest, to be meek and humble, to be faithful to the inspirations of the Holy Spirit, and so to mortify my passions that I may be ever more pleasing and acceptable in the sight of my dear Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, Who lives and reigns world without end.

“My dearest St. Rose of Lima, Last year, I came to you with my prayers, my burdens, and the people I love so dearly. Today, after finishing another novena with you, I return with an even deeper gratitude. Thank you for staying close, for carrying my prayers to Jesus, and for reminding me that God's grace can meet us even in the simplest and most hidden parts of our lives. Thank you for every blessing I have received since then, especially the ones I cannot fully explain but know in my heart were graces. Thank you for the strength to keep going, the peace that found me when I needed it, and every little reminder that I am being cared for. Please continue to watch over my loved ones and accompany me through this new chapter. Teach me to love Jesus more sincerely each day. I'm grateful I came…”
