O, St. Maria Goretti, who, strengthened by God's grace, did not hesitate even at the age of twelve, to shed your blood and

sacrifice life itself to defend your virgin purity, look graciously on the unhappy human race, which has strayed far from the path of eternal salvation. Teach us all, and especially youth, with what

courage and promptitude we should flee, for the love of Jesus, anything that could offend Him or stain our souls with sin. Obtain for

sorrows of life, and the grace which we earnestly beg of thee
