As a parish family, we at Saint Patrick acknowledge and pray for all members of our parish and especially for parishioners and immediate family members who are currently on active duty in the military.  Please pray for the following service personnel:

The following prayer is suggested for their wellbeing and safety:

O God, Who has said: "Greater love than this no one has that one lay down his life for his friends." Bless with Your Divine and Almighty protection all who are in the Service of their country. May their loyalty never waver, their bravery never falter, and their faith and trust in You never weaken. Demand not of them the supreme sacrifice, but bring them safely and quickly home to their loved ones. And, O God, richly and eternally reward them for their unselfish willingness to serve their country in the preservation of freedom and peace. Amen.

Please contact the Saint Ignatius of Loyola Military Ministry or the Parish Office if you wish to add your active-duty immediate family member to the Military Prayer List.
