Let us remember that we are in the holy presence of God.

O Lord, grant us the spirit of fortitude, so that guided by the example of the martyr St. Sebastian, we may learn to bear witness to the Christian Faith and patiently support the sufferings of life. Through Christ Our Lord. Amen.

Saint John Baptist de La Salle…pray for us.

Live Jesus in our hearts…forever!
