Prayer to Saint Agatha
Dear Virgin and Martyr, whom the Church recalls in her liturgy,
you heroically resisted the temptations of a degenerate ruler.
Subjected to long and horrible tortures, you remained faithful
to your heavenly Spouse. Saint Peter, we are told, gave you some
solace and so you are invoked by nurses. Encourage them to see
Christ in the sick and to render true service to them. Amen.

St. Agatha Prayer
Lord God, you showered heavenly gifts on the virgin Agatha.
Hear the prayers of those who recall her devoted life
and who ask her to intercede for them in their necessity.

and enjoy eternal happiness with her in heaven.

A Nurse's Prayer
O my God, teach me to receive the sick in Thy Name. Give to my
efforts success for the glory of Thy holy Name. It is Thy work:
without Thee, I cannot succeed.
Grant that the sick Thou hast placed in my care may be abundantly
blessed, and not one of them be lost because of any neglect on
my part. Help me to overcome every temporal weakness, and strengthen
in me whatever may enable me to bring joy to the lives of those
I serve.
Give me grace, for the sake of Thy sick ones and of those lives
that will be influenced by them. Amen.

sick and the prevention of disease and pain. Strengthen them in
