Collect of Ss Abraham, Hermit & Confessor, & Mary, Penitent ~ 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.
God, who dost gladden us with the annual feast of Abraham, Thy Confessor, mercifully grant that, whilst honouring the anniversary of his death, we may also imitate his deeds.
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. 

V. O Lord, hear my prayer.
R. And let my cry come unto thee.
Let us pray.
Hear us, O God Our Saviour, that as we rejoice in the festival of Blessed Mary, so we may be taught by the influence of her loving devotion.
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 ~ Ss Joseph & Mary are not celebrated on the Universal Calendar, but according to the Martyrology, today is their Feast Day. The Collects are taken from the Common of Confessors & the Common of Holy Women not Virgins
