Holy God, you bestowed your grace upon Saints Peter and Paul so they might give witness to your saving love. In company with them we pray: ℟. Strengthen our faith, O God.
Give courage, integrity, and knowledge to Pope Leo, bishops, and all who preach and teach your Word. ℟.
Shower your mercy on those who experience doubt or falter in fidelity. ℟.
Give perseverance and encouragement to those who are persecuted for the sake of the Gospel. ℟.
Our Father . . .
May the faith and example of Peter and Paul inspire us to lead others to Jesus by the manner of our lives. Amen.
