Prayer to St. Oliver Plunkett 
Glorious Martyr, Oliver, who willingly 
gave your life for your faith, 
help us also to be strong in faith. 
May we be loyal like you 
to the See of Peter. 
By your intercession and example 
may all hatred and bitterness 
be banished from the hearts 
of Irish men and women. 
May the peace of Christ reign 
in our hearts, 
as it did in your heart, 
even at the moment of your death. 
Pray for us and for Ireland.
Amen.
