Prayer to Saint Josephat and the Martyrs

Prayer to Saint Josephat and the Martyrs

Saint holy martyr Josephat and other martyrs for the unity of the Church of Christ! By your martyr's death you have left the Church a great testimony of the holy faith. Obtain for us from the Lord that we may preserve this divine gift and bear witness with word and life to the truth of that holy faith. Obtain for us the grace that we may faithfully live by God's commandments. By heavenly mercy and grace bring those who live in sin and in the darkness of ignorance to reflection on their salvation. Comfort the afflicted, strengthen the weak in faith, and cause all to feel your powerful intercession before the Most Holy Giver of all good.

Do, Saint Josephat and the martyrs, intercede with your prayers to Christ the Savior, that in our whole people unity in faith may reign, that all may become children of one holy Universal Church, and that the entire Ukrainian nation, enriched by God's blessing, may glorify God who has crowned you with an unfading wreath in His Kingdom. Rejoice, martyrs of church unity, for even today you proclaim communion. Rejoice and pray for our salvation. Amen.
