"May the great God give me grace to display before your eyes, and before the eyes of the public, the beauties and perfections of the catholic church."
Coming soon!
O God, light of the faithful and shepherd of souls, who sent Servant of God Demetrius Gallitzin to serve God’s people in the Allegheny Mountains, feeding your sheep by his words and forming them by his example, pour out your Spirit to sow seeds of truth in people’s hearts and to awaken in them obedience to the faith.
May the Gospel continue to be preached and the Sacraments bring power and grace to the faithful. By the example of this man of faith, Demetrius Gallitzin, may your people advance in the path of salvation and love.
Confident of your faithfulness to us, we humbly ask you, our God, to grant us the favor of (name your intention).
May Christ’s saving work continue to the end of the ages, and may we feel a more urgent call to work for the salvation of every creature.
We pray this, as did your priest Demetrius Gallitzin, 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.
