St. Martin de Porres, you always had sympathy for the poor and those who are suffering. We need your help and now ask for it with great confidence in your goodness and power. The favor you received from God encourage us now to ask your intercession. We Ask you must humbly to befriend us and assist us from your place in heaven . When you were here on earth. You spent your life loving God and your neighbor .Now that you live in the presence of God intercede for us and beg the Divine Physician to give us health of soul and body. Amen.

O God, Who has given us In Your humble Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, The model of all virtue And perfection, Grant to us The virtue of humility. We think so little of You Because we are So full of ourselves. We cannot love You more Until humility shows us Our own nothingness And makes us rejoice In our complete Dependence upon You. You have given to the world a glorious apostle of humility: St. Martin de Porres. Guide us by his example And strengthen Us through his intercession In our efforts To conform our hearts To the humble Heart Of Your crucified Son. May the glory of sainthood Which you have Deigned to bestow Upon Brother Martin Draw the world closer And closer to You. Renew, O Lord, in these days When pride and forgetfulness Of You are so widespread, The wonders which You performed Through Your humble servant During his lifetime. Through the same Christ Our Lord. Amen. Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be (3 times each.)
