Collect of St Albert of Jerusalem, Bishop & Confessor ~ Indulgenced on the Saint's Feast (See Note)

According to the Apostolic Penitentiary, a partial indulgence is granted to those who on the feast of any Saint recite in his honour the oration of the Missal or any other approved by legitimate Authority.


V. O Lord, hear my prayer.
R. And let my cry come unto thee.
Let us pray.
Lord God, through St Albert of Jerusalem Thou hast given us a Rule of life according to Thy Gospel to help us attain perfect love. Through his prayers may we always live in allegiance to Jesus Christ and serve faithfully until death Him who liveth and reigneth with Thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, One God, world without end.
R. Amen. 

Nota bene - St Albert is not celebrated on the Universal Calendar, but according to Fr Alban Butler's Lives of the Saints, today is his Feast Day. His Feast is kept in the Carmelite Orders on 17 September. The Collect is taken from the Carmelite Office for his Feast.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
