Holy and blessed St Helena, with the anguish and devotion with which you sought the Cross of Christ, I plead that you give me God’s grace to suffer in patience the labors of this life, so that through them and through your intercession and protection, I will be able to seek and carry the cross which God has placed upon me, so that I can serve Him in this life and enjoy His glory ever after.

Amen.

O my God, my Savior and Glorifier, You were such a generous benefactor on the Holy Wood of the Cross, where You spilled Your Precious Blood for my salvation.

Pour upon my soul, at the hour of my death, but a drop of Your Blood so that I die in Your grace and then, assisted by the intercession of my protector and advocate Saint Helena, grant to me what I now ask You for in this prayer

Pause here for the grace you are asking.

if it be expedient for Your honor and glory and for the benefit of my soul.

Amen.

Saint Helena, who upon opening your mind and heart to the light of the Gospel and upon finding the wood of the true Cross was converted into the model of all the Christian virtues, help us to break the attachments of sin, and to return to the arms of God our Father.

You found the treasure that the Gospel tells us about, since you found the Cross of Christ.

May we also find that treasure, Christ living within us.

Amen.

Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Glorious Saint Helena, we admire your faithful life.

God willed that your son would bring the faith of Christ to the Roman Empire and that one day you would find the magnificent wood of the true Cross on which Jesus died.

Obtain for us from Jesus strength for our faith and a great love for the Cross.

May no contradiction or challenge distance us from Jesus.

We ask you all this through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
