Collect of St Laurence O'Toole, 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.
O 
God of all holiness, who didst call Saint Laurence O’Toole from a life of quiet and solitude to be a shepherd of Thy people, a teacher of the clergy and friend of the poor; grant, we pray, that we may follow his example of perseverance and through his intercession arrive at the peace of Thy Kingdom.
Through Jesus Christ, Thy Son our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end.
R. Amen.  

Nota bene ~ St Laurence is not celebrated on the Universal Calendar, but according to the Martyrology, today is his Feast Day. The Collect is taken from his Proper in Ireland.
