Saints
Great Saint Martin, from the bosom of eternal Felicity, where, for nearly fifteen centuries, you have enjoyed the reward that God has bestowed on your virtues, which have made you the perfect model of the true Christians, of the pious Solitaries and of the most glorious Pontiffs of whom the ancient Church of the Gauls is honoured, cast your eyes, I beseech you, on this parish which is dedicated to you and which is pleased to have you for its glorious Patron. Heirs to the faith of our fathers, we are happy to be able to perpetuate, among us, the cult they paid to your virtues, and to invoke this powerful protection that you have never ceased to show, in the course of the centuries, in favour of those who have had recourse to you.
Therefore, great Saint, intercede for us before God. Obtain for us the spirit of faith which directed you in all your actions; the fire of charity which made you, as it were, the Providence of all the unfortunate; the love of chastity which made you lead an almost angelic life on earth, as well as the humility and mortification by which you preserved this beautiful virtue. Above all, obtain for us the preservation of the Catholic faith in our common homeland, so that, enlightened by its luminous torch, we may, by faithfully fulfilling the duties it imposes on us, enjoy from this world the countless benefits of which it is the source, and merit the supreme felicity which it shows us, in the life to come, as the just reward for our virtues in this one. So be it.
