Pray to Saint Benedict, patron saint of Europe

“O holy Patriarch, we invoke you.

Raise your paternal arms wide open towards the Most Holy Trinity and pray for the world, for the Church, and particularly for Europe, for your Europe of which you are the heavenly patron:

So that it does not forget, does not refuse, does not reject the extraordinary treasure of the Christian faith which, for centuries, has animated and fertilized the History and the moral, civil, cultural, artistic progress of its different nations;

That, by virtue of its Christian matrix, it may be the bearer and generator of unity and peace among the peoples of the continent and those of the whole world;

May it guarantee to all its citizens serenity, peace, work, security, fundamental rights, such as those concerning religion, family life, marriage.

Amen. »
