Memorial of St. Scholastica, virgin
Post Vatican II:
Lord, as we recall the memory of St. Scholastica, we ask that by her example we may serve you with love and obtain perfect joy. Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Old Calendar:
Latin:
Deus, qui animam beatae Virginis tuae Scholasticae ad ostendendam innocentiae viam in columbae specie coelum penetrare fecisti: da nobis ejus meritis et precibus ita innocenter vivere; ut ad aeterna mereamur gaudia pervenire. Per Dominum nostrum.
English:
O God, Who, to show us the way of innocence, didst cause the soul of thy blessed Virgin Scholastica to enter heaven in the form of a dove: grant through her merits and prayers that we may live in an innocence that will win for us eternal joys. Through our Lord.
