Collect of St Simon Stock, 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 Lord, may the community dedicated to Thee and to the Virgin Mary rejoice at the solemnity of blessed Simon: and just as it obtained through Him a sign of such great protection, so may it gain possession of the gifts of eternal predestination.
Who livest and reignest with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, forever and ever
R. Amen. 

Nota bene ~ St Simon 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 C
armelite Rite.
