PRAYER OF THE DAY

Prayer to St. Leo the Great

St. Leo the Great you formed the doctrine of the Incarnation. The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us. Pray that this truth will become known, be appreciated and cherished for the Treasure that It is today, that all may come to know Jesus in the Eucharist as He is present in all the Tabernacles of the world.

Your goal was to sustain the unity of the Church and you fought the heresies which seriously threatened church unity. Beg God to strengthen His church on Earth, to heal divisions within the church, and bring about unity of all Christians everywhere under the authority given to the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church.

By your intersession, Rome was saved from being destroyed. We pray that you interceed for the Church now. Ask God to protect the Church from all who would try to destroy its members.

Amen.
