Saint Raphael, Patron Angel of Youth, I beg you to plead with God for me that I may always keep my life pure and holy. As you guarded the young Tobias from dangers of soul and body on his journey to a strange land, protect me from the many dangers that confront me in my life. Strengthen me in my struggle against the temptations of the world, the flesh, and the devil.



I pray and beg you, glorious Saint Raphael, to be my Patron Angel of pur­ity. For your great love for Jesus, the King of the Angels, and for Mary, the Queen of the Angels, keep me from all un­cleaness, and grant that my mind may be untainted, my heart pure, and my body chaste. May I receive the "Bread of Angels" in Holy Communion frequently, that it may be an effective remedy and protection against the temptations that press round about me, and seal my heart forever against the suggestions of sinful pleasures. Help me always to serve Jesus and Mary in perfect chastity, so that one day I may merit to belong to those of whom Jesus spoke: "Blessed are the pure of heart for they shall see God." Amen.
