Prayer to St. Leo the Great
Great St. Leo, we ask that you stand beside us this very day (night). Be with us as we struggle to keep your beautiful Church thriving. With your great wisdom, soften the hearts and minds of those who seek to do it harm. Great St. Leo, please continue to work through us as we seek to bring peace, mercy, and truth -- ask the Holy Spirit to give all of us guidance, wisdom and protection.
We thank you for all that you have done, and are doing, to guard the Church from all evil and for your intercession on behalf of all of us working to work for our beloved Church.
Please keep us faithful and steadfast in our Catholic practices and beliefs. Inflame us with greater love for Jesus in the Eucharist and all the Holy Sacraments. Ask Our Lord to return to the tabernacle of churches and hearts where he has been removed and stay there until the end of time. Bring us close to the gentle love of Jesus' most holy mother, Mary. Bring back those who have left our Catholic Church, especially in these difficult times of understanding.
Please allow the Catholic Church to bring great honor and glory to our God. As we continue to work under your patronage, please direct that work so that we can make a true difference in our Church, in our Community, and in our World. Let our work in the Church flourish to bring many hearts and souls to the Incarnation, Jesus Christ, so that someday we may all be together, with you, giving praise and glory to the Lord Our God. We ask this through the Holy Spirit. Amen.
