Feast of St. Martin Tuesday 3rd Nov. 2020

Prayer to St. Martin

Most humble St. Martin, whose burning charity embraces all, but especially those who are sick, afflicted, or in need, we turn to you for help in our present difficulties and we implore you to obtain for us from God health of soul and body, and in particular the favour we now ask … (pause to ask favours) …

May we by imitating your charity and humility, find quiet and contentment all our days, and cheerful submission to God's holy will in all the trials and difficulties of life.

Pray for us, O St. Martin,

That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let us pray,

O God, who exalts the humble and who caused St. Martin, your confessor, to pass to the heavenly Kingdom, grant through his merits and intercession that on earth we may so imitate his humility as to deserve to be exalted with him in heaven. Through Christ Our Lord. Amen.
