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.
O God, protector & redeemer of mankind, whose glories have been proclaimed through the wonders accomplished by your chosen prophets, Thou has bestowed the spirit of Elias on Thy Prophet Eliseus; in Thy kindness grant us too an increase of the gifts of the Holy Ghost so that, living as prophets, we will bear constant witness to Thine abiding presence and providence.Let us pray.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who livest and reignest with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, one God, forever and ever.
R. Amen.
Nota bene - St Eliseus is not celebrated on the Universal Calendar but he is honoured today by the Carmelites as Co-Patron of the Order. The Collect is taken from the Carmelite Liturgy.

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.
