Prayer to St Oliver Plunkett

Glorious martyr, Saint Oliver Plunkett,

who willingly gave your life for the faith,

help us also to be strong in our faith.

By your intercession and example

may all hatred and bitterness be banished

from the hearts of 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. Amen
