Prayer (St. Pius X Prayer)
Glorious Pope of the Eucharist, Saint Pius X, you sought "to restore all things in Christ." Obtain for me a true love of Jesus so that I may live only for Him. By your love for Mary, mother and queen of all, inflame my heart with a tender devotion to her. Blessed model of the priesthood, obtain for us holy, dedicated priests, and increase vocations of the religious life. Amen

SAINT PIUS X - OUR PATRON
Pius X was born in 1835 in Riese , Italy , and was named Giuseppe (Joseph) Sarto. Giuseppe was the second of ten children, and his family was very poor. After completing seminary training, Giuseppe was ordained a priest at the age of twenty-three. In 1884 he was made a bishop, and in 1903 he was elected the 259 th Successor of St. Peter. Pope Pius X’s motto was to “Renew all things in Christ.” He sought to do this by emphasizing the importance of the Eucharist. He encouraged daily Mass and Communion. He directed that younger children be allowed to receive Holy Communion. He also encouraged beauty in the liturgies of the Church, especially through Gregorian chant. He strongly encouraged daily reading of the Bible and founded the Biblical Institute for scriptural studies. Distressed by the beginning of World War I, Pius X fell ill and died on August 20, 1914 . He was canonized in 1954—the first canonized pope since Pius V in 1672.
A well-known papal historian wrote of Pope Pius X: “He was one of those chosen few men whose personality is irresistible. Everyone was moved by his simplicity and his angelic kindness. Yet it was something more that carried him into all hearts: and that ‘something’ is best defined by saying that all who was ever admitted to his presence had a deep conviction of being face to face with a saint. And the more one knows about him the stronger this conviction becomes.”
