A Prayer to
St. Isidore
Patron of
Farmers
to All Creatures of Our God and King

Dear Isidore, you know how normal it is to cultivate the land for you were employed as a farm laborer for the greater part of your life. Although you received God's help materially through Angels in the field, all farmers are aided spiritually to see the wonders God has strewn on this earth. Encourage all farmers in their labors and help them to feed numerous people. Amen.

Prayer for Farmers
Heavenly Father,
King of the Universe, you are the sole source of growth and
abundance. With your help I plant my crops and by your power they
give forth a harvest. Grant me the grace always to work with all
my strength and ingenuity in cultivating the soil so that it will
bring forth fruits for my benefit and the benefit of all who will
use them.
Make me ever cognizant that without my part in the work of
harnessing the goods of the earth these particular goods would be
lacking to my brothers and sisters in this world. Enable me at
the same time to realize that without your part in this process I
would be working in vain. Accept my thanks for your continuous
past help and your never-failing assistance in the future. Amen.

St. Isidore has
been named the Patron of the Internet
in 1999 by Pope John Paul II.

feast day: April 4
