A Prayer Before Each Weekend Mass:
“O God, through your Son, Jesus, we offer you a prayer and thanksgiving before our celebration of the Eucharist. The lives of St. Damien and St. Marianne-the Saints of Molokai-are our patrons and special intercessors for the intentions for which we pray. Being blessed to be here on the sacred ground of Molokai, through their example of giving themselves as a witness to love, we pray for the world, especially for the rejected in society and for those in need of our prayers. We pray for ourselves to be joy filled persons with compassion; and we ask to have a willingness to serve the Kingdom in the capacity to which we are able to give. Saints Damien and Marianne who served the Hansen’s disease patients without any distinction of race or religion help us to reach out in spirit and prayer to create a civilization of love.
St. Damien, Servant of Humanity, pray for us.
St. Marianne, Mother of Outcasts, pray for us.”
