Prayer to Saint Sebastian

Glorious Saint Sebastian,
you who had great courage,
help us to be witnesses of Jesus
before this unbelieving world
as you have brought others to Christ.
Help us to have the love of neighbor that you had
and to give our lives for our brothers,
even in difficulties and dangers.
Help us to have faith in the pains of life
as you endured cruel martyrdom.
Protect all soldiers, military and police
against every danger in their work.
Protect all nations against wars,
hunger and pestilence.
Intercede for the grace that I need...

Make your request(s) here...

Amen

Third day: [Psalm 40:2-10]

He pulled me up from the seething chasm,
from the mud of the mire.
He set my feet on rock,
and made my footsteps firm.
He put a fresh song in my mouth,
praise of our God.
Many will be awestruck at the sight,
and will put their trust in Yahweh.
How blessed are those who put their trust in Yahweh,
who have not sided with rebels
and those who have gone astray in falsehood.
How much you have done, Yahweh,
my God your wonders,
your plans for us,
You have no equal.
I will proclaim and speak of them;
they are beyond number.
You wanted no sacrifice or cereal offering,
but You gave me an open ear,
You did not ask for burnt offering
or sacrifice for sin;
then I said, "Here I am, I am coming."
In the scroll of the book it is written of me,
my delight is to do Your will;
Your law, my God, is deep in my heart.
I proclaimed the saving justice of Yahweh
in the great assembly.
See, I will not hold my tongue,
as You well know.
I have not kept Your saving justice
locked in the depths of my heart,
but have spoken of your constancy and saving help.
I have made no secret of Your faithful
and steadfast love, in the great assembly.

Say 1: Our Father...

Say 1: Hail Mary...

Say 1: Glory Be...
