Novena to St. Zita
Patron of domestic workers and maids.
St. Zita inspire us to take pride in our daily work
and
do it to the best of our abilities
out of Love for God.
May we find Jesus in the most menial of tasks.
May we always embrace
a spirit of obedience
and charity as you did.
Pray for us St. Zita that we may have a generous heart
that gives even when we have
little.
Place a trust in Jesus deep in our heart
that we may never experience despair or loss of hope.
Please carry the petitions
we hold in our heart
to Jesus on our behalf.
Amen
Prayer to Saint Zita
Dear follower of the Son of God,
You desired to become a servant
And died the death of a slave.
You were
not only a faithful maid-servant
But a practical lover of the poor.
Like Mary You could have said:
“Behold the handmaid of the Lord.”
Prompt
domestics to be just and charitable,
Seeing in their employers children of God
And setting an example for them
as servants of God.
Amen.
