Consecration to Saint Philomena
as Chosen Patroness

(Ed. note: I am unsure where this came from, but I am reproducing it here because it is a nice prayer.)

O glorious St. Philomena, Virgin, Martyr, and Spouse of Christ, glory of the Catholic Church, illustrious Wonder-worker, I, thine unworthy client and servitor, consecrate myself this day for my whole life to thy love and to devotion to thee. Yes, I will love thee ever with warm affection, and, after Jesus, Mary and Joseph, I shall bear thee in my thoughts, and speak of thee to all that I may draw them to devotion and love toward thee. Thou shalt be, after Jesus, Mary and Joseph, the object of my affection, my joy and my consolation. To thee, as to an intimate and dear friend, I will manifest my joys, from thee I will seek counsel in my doubts, to thee I will recur for comfort and help in my trials and sorrows.

Deign, O glorious Saint, to receive me into the number of thy clients and lovers, and to protect me at all times. O my sweet Saint, O dear St. Philomena, I offer and consecrate my heart to thee today. I wish all good and joy unto thee insofar as my desire can contribute to thine accidental glory. In return, thou pardon my boldness, wish well unto me so there may be established between thee and me a current of warm and everlasting affection and friendship. I will never forget thee, my sweet advocate, and do thou remember me that I may be thy companion forever in Paradise. Amen.
