Commemoration of martyrs of Japan

Prayer by st Francis Xaver, instigator of the Japanese mission:

Eternal God, Creator of all things, remember that You alone created the souls of unbelievers, which You have made according to Your Image and Likeness.
Behold, O Lord, how to Your dishonour many of them are falling into Hell.
Remember, O Lord, Your Son Jesus Christ, Who so generously shed His Blood and suffered for them.
Do not permit that Your Son, Our Lord, remain unknown by unbelievers, but, with the help of Your Saints and the Church, the Bride of Your Son, remember Your mercy, forget their idolatry and infidelity, and make them know Him, Who You have sent, Jesus Christ, Your Son, Our Lord,
Who is our salvation, our life, and our resurrection, through Whom we have been saved and redeemed, and to Whom is due glory forever. Amen
