SAINT PRAYERS
ST. DONATUS
St. Donatus, we pray for your intercession to keep our families, homes, animals, crops, and lands safe from all storms. We especially ask for protection from lightning, hail, tornadoes, and high winds. Amen.
ST. ALEXIUS
Oh, glorious and Blessed Saint Alexius! Faithful, pious and good servant that you are, enjoying the glory of God, obtain me the favor to separate me from all evil.
ST. FRANCIS DE SALES
O Blessed Francis, who in your life did excel in all virtues, especially in your love of God and of your neighbor, I earnestly ask you to take me under your immediate protection, to obtain from God my perfect conversion, and that of all sinners.
STS. PETER & PAUL
Grant, we pray, O Lord our God, that we may be sustained by the intercession of the blessed Apostles Peter and Paul, that, as through them you gave your Church the foundations of her heavenly office, so through them you may help her to eternal salvation. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
OUR LADY OF THE ANGELS
You are fair, O Mary, and the stain of original sin is not in you. You are the Glory of Jerusalem, You are the Joy of Israel, You are the Honor of our People, You are the Advocate of Sinners, O Mary! Our Lady of the Angels, Virgin most prudent, Mother most loving, Pray for us,
Intercede for us with Jesus Christ, Our Lord.
Amen.
ST. PAUL
Glorious Saint Paul, Most zealous apostle, Martyr for the love of Christ, Give us a deep faith, A steadfast hope,
A burning love for our Lord, So that we can proclaim with you, 'It is no longer I who live,
But Christ who lives in me.'
ST. CLOUD
Lord God, you alone are holy, and you holiness is seen in the lives of the saints. You called Saint Cloud to serve your people in the priesthood and he, in turn, humbled himself in the world for your sake. May his prayers and example encourage us to serve you as priestly people. Through his intercession, may we follow Jesus more faithfully and live as a people holy in your sight. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
FOR OUR NATION
Mary, Queen of Heaven and Earth, intercede for us, your children in America, as we pray for our nation, our military, and our families.
We pray for our government leaders, that they will make just decisions and govern us in accordance with truth and the principles upon which our nation was founded.
We ask protection for those serving in the military and for our first responders. Bless them and their families as they sacrifice themselves to keep us safe.
We pray for our families. In a culture that seeks to destroy the morals and values upon which this country was founded, may our families be united in faith and charity.
Reclaim this great country for your Son’s glory, that under His protection and guidance, we may stand together as a people of faith and trust in Him for the changes we seek.
