Collect of St Louis Marie de Montfort, Confessor ~ Indulgenced Today (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, Thou didst inspire Louis-Marie to undertake the apostolic mission of preaching the Gospel of Christ, Thy Son, to all people. Aided by his prayers and taught by the Virgin Mary, grant that we may be open to the inspiration of Thy Spirit, attentive to the cries of the poor, and so become untiring messengers of Thy Reign.
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 Louis Marie 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 the M
asses celebrated by the Montfortian Orders.
