Send forth O Lord, laborers into Thy harvest. Lord, grant unto Thy church saintly priests and fervent religious. St. Michael...(Everyone else:... strengthen our bishops.)
BigBoy: ... straighten our bishops!
After saying our usual "Bless us, O Lord", we have always added a few short intercessory prayers. Some of them change, depending on the feast day being celebrated or devotion being observed (St. Joseph is being thanked daily for his help in finding Husband a new job.) but the ones that always stay the same are the prayers above. Thanks for the chuckle, BigBoy!
Perhaps St. Michael could straighten them out a little while strengthening them too!
