Lord, God of our fathers,
You brought St Teresa Benedicta
to the fullness of the science of the Cross
at the hour of her martyrdom.
Fill us with the same knowledge;
and, through her intercession,
allow us always to seek after You,
the supreme truth, to remain faithful until death
to the covenant of love
ratified in the blood of your Son
for the salvation of all men and women.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
