(Allow a moment for people to tune in and say the creed of their choice)

In Thanksgiving for all the miracles worked through Saint Philomena: 3 Our Fathers

In honor of the life of Saint Philomena: 13 Hail Philomenas (or Hail Marys)

Four versions of the Hail Philomena you can say (or you can write your own or just say the Hail Mary of
your choice):

Hail, O holy Saint Philomena, whom I acknowledge after Mary as my advocate with thy Divine Spouse,
intercede for me now and at the hour of my death. Saint Philomena, beloved daughter of Jesus and
Mary, pray for us who have recourse to thee. Amen.

Rejoice, Saint Philomena, whom I acknowledge after Mary as my advocate with the Divine Spouse,

Hail, Saint Philomena, Virgin and Martyr, thy Lord is with thee, blessed art thou among maidens and
blessed is thy pure heart full of compassion for all. Holy Maiden Saint Philomena, pray for us now and at
the hour of our death. Amen.

Rejoice Saint Philomena, the Beloved is with you! Blessed are you among maidens and blessed is your
pure heart full of compassion for all. O Good Saint Philomena, full of compassion for those who invoke
