Prayer to Saint Raphael

O Raphael, lead us toward those we are waiting for, those who are waiting for us: Raphael, Angel of happy meeting, lead us by the hand toward those we are looking for. May all our movements be guided by your Light and transfigured with your joy.

Angel, guide of Tobias, lay the request we now address to you at the feet of Him on whole unveiled Face you are privileged to gaze. Lonely and tired, crushed by the separations and sorrows of life, we feel the need of calling you and of pleading for the protection of your wings, so that we may not be as strangers in the province of joy, all ignorant of the concerns of our country. Remember the weak, you who are strong, you whose home lies beyond the region of thunder, in a land that is always peaceful, always serene and bright with the resplendent glory of God.

Flannery O'Connor quotes this prayer, which she attributes to Ernest Hello, in a letter dated 14 July 1964, less than a month before her death.

Do you know what is going on in the Sudan and Kenya? Excuse my ignorance in foreign affairs. Thank you.

A daughter at the age of 23 was taken from her parents and fiancee this last weekend. I attended the wake last night and the funeral today. Sometimes it is hard for people to fathom the "WHY" of such a young person passing on to Heaven.

We all hope and pray you are safe and able to help the Christians in Sudan and Kenya. May the Lord provide a hedge of safety around you and the other priests and nuns who are there to serve these people. Amen.

Thank you for these many prayers. We were able to get a working line via sat phone. I just wanted to send a quick word that we are safe and beginning our work for the Lord here.

O Almighty and merciful God, who hast commissioned Thy angels to guide and
protect us, command them to be our assiduous companions from our setting
out until our return; to clothe us with their invisible protection; to keep
from us all danger of collision, of fire, of explosion, of fall and
bruises, and finally, having preserved us from all evil, and especially
from sin, to guide us to our heavenly home. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Amen.

God speed, Fr. Elijah

Heavenly Father,

We humbly ask you to protect and to guide your servant, Elijah, in these horrible times when apostasy and scandal have rocked the Church and have affected so many of our priests. We ask that your loving hand protect faithful Elijah and grant him success in his mission and a safe return from danger.

Dear Father, especially now, let him continue to be an inspiration for so many and a wonderful example of your light and love shining within the world. We ask this in the name of Your Dear Son, Jesus Christ in union with Your Holy Spirit. Amen.

[Cap'n Crunch]

We're with you Father! May Our Lady protect and comfort you!

[big'ol_freeper]
