FEAST DAY OF ST. MARIA GORETTI | JULY 6, 2026
Today, as we celebrate the feast day of St. Maria Goretti, the Junior Catholic Women's League of the Diocese of Antipolo come before you with grateful hearts, as our patron, guide, and companion on our journey of faith.
You lived with humility, courage, and unwavering trust in God despite the hardships you faced. You remained faithful to Christ, chose what was right even in suffering, and showed the power of forgiveness through your love and mercy. May your life inspire us to become young women of faith, integrity, and compassion.
Pray for us, St. Maria Goretti, that we may always recognize our dignity as beloved daughters of God and live each day according to His will. Strengthen us when we face trials, temptations, and moments of uncertainty. Help us to remain steadfast in our faith, to make choices rooted in truth and love, and to courageously witness to Christ in our families, schools, parishes, and communities.
Teach us to forgive as you forgave, to serve with joyful hearts, and to love others with kindness, humility, and generosity. May we continue to grow together in holiness, united in prayer, friendship, and service, always seeking to reflect God's mercy in all that we do.
Lead us ever closer to Jesus through the loving intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. May our lives become faithful witnesses of God's grace, bringing hope and light to everyone we meet.
St. Maria Goretti, our patron saint, pray for us, that as the Junior Catholic Women's League of the Diocese of Antipolo, we may persevere in faith, grow in virtue, and joyfully answer God's call to holiness. Amen.
