Prayer to St.
Peter Claver
Patron of
Missionaries

Dear Saint of our
modern times, you were permeated with compassion for the
oppressed, for human beings sold as slaves and treated as
expendable beasts. While alleviating their natural ills, you also
took away their spiritual ills, and taught them the surpassing
knowledge of Christ.
Inspire many of our contemporaries to become self-sacrificing
missionaries like you. Amen.

feast day: September 9
