Dear Convert, after a
sinful life, through the power
of God's holy Word you learned to love
your fellow
human beings. Self-sacrificing, you
founded the
Society of Hospital Brothers. No wonder
the Church
made you the patron of patients and
nurses. That is
why we confidently have recourse to you.
Please give
assistance to N. and teach us to
be kind like you.
Amen.
God, You
filled St. John with the spirit of
compassion. Grant that by practicing
works of
charity we may deserve to be numbered
among the
elect in Your Kingdom. Amen.
feast day: March 8
