Saint Gertrude Guardian Angel Prayer
O MOST holy Angel of God, appointed by God to my Guardian, I give thee thanks for all the
benefits which thou hast ever bestowed on me in body and soul. I praise and glorify thee that thou
condescended to assist me with such patient fidelity, and to defend me against all the
assaults of my enemy. Blessed be the hour in which thou were assigned me for my Guardian,
my defender and my patron. In acknowledgment and return for all thy loving ministries to me, I
offer thee the infinitely precious and noble Heart of Jesus, and firmly purpose to obey thee
henceforward, and most faithfully to serve my God. Amen.
