Prayer to Saint Nicholas of Tolentino

O glorious Saint Nicholas, our Patron and Protector, glory of the Catholic Church and ornament of the Augustinian Order! You who were so tender-hearted unto the miseries of others, behold we come to you and with full confidence beseech you the grace to follow in your footsteps. We are poor, but we desire to enrich ourselves with your merits; we are weak and we wish to be strengthened with your power; we are blind and so we crave for the light of your star. Intercede for us, Saint Nicholas, that God, our Lord, may grant us all that we need to come closer to you and in your companionship, to glorify Him forever and ever. Amen.

Antiphon

True poor of Christ and virgin chosen by God, who by the observance of perfect obedience enlightened the Augustinian Order with virtues and miracles.

V. Pray for us, Saint Nicholas of Tolentino.
R. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let us pray.

O God,
who have shown the wonders of your holiness and mercy
in the Priest Saint Nicholas,
and in him have given us an example
of dedication to you and apostolic ministry,
we humbly implore you through his intercession
to conserve your Church in unity and peace.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
Who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever. Amen. 

In the name of the Father, + and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
