San Giacomo della Marca, ora pro nobis
|
November 28th is the Feast of San Giacomo della Marca (St. James of the Marches), Missionary and Miracle worker. Counted among the many co-patrons of Naples, the austere friar preached tirelessly against greed and usury. In celebration, I'm posting a
Prayer to St. James of the Marches. The accompanying photo, courtesy of Anthony Scillia, was taken at Saint James of the Marches R.C. Church in Totowa, New Jersey.
Evviva San Giacomo della Marca!Prayer to St. James of the Marches
O God, you have given to the Church in St. James of the Marches a tireless missionary of your word, totally dedicated to the salvation of souls and the conversion of sinners. May his intercession help us to atone for our sins and to walk swiftly on the path of salvation. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who is God.
