Gracious God, your light shines through the suffering and faith of the martyrs. In company with St. Andrew Kim Tae-gŏn and his companions we pray: Bless us, O God.
Give freedom of religious expression to the people of South and North Korea and all of Asia.
Bless us, O God.
Strengthen and sustain missionaries and all who are persecuted for their faith.
Bless us, O God.
Help us to reach out to those who hunger and thirst for justice and for temporal needs.
Bless us, O God.
Our Father . . .
May God give us joy for the days of our affliction and animate us for the works of justice and mercy, through Jesus our brother. Amen.
