Prayer to St. Susanna

Dear Saint Susanna,
You suffered and died for the love of Jesus Christ
Never wavering from your faith.
You faced the harsh death of a martyr
Always looking toward the Heavens
With love and devotion,
Knowing you would be with Jesus in Paradise.
Saint Susanna, help me today
With all the trials and tribulations I might face.
Help me to remain true to the faith and to myself
No matter what the consequences,
Just as you did when you faced your murderers.
Help me today and every day, dear patron Saint Susanna. Amen.
