St. Clare is the patron saint of
television and television writers. Reporters need our prayers, especially those
who cover stories about victims confronting catastrophic events or
violence, including the first responders at the scenes.
For protection of police and
firefighters, Michael the Archangel and St. Florian are commonly invoked. St.
Martin and St. George are patrons of soldiers. During civil unrest and
turbulent times as we've experienced in our home town and abroad, that we see in the media, we can also pray to St. Andrew of Corsini for peace...
St. Andrew Corsini, patron against civil disorder and riots, intercede,
we pray, for all those that are caught up in the unrest and rioting caused by the
evil in men's hearts. For those suffering in Syria, Afghanistan, Libya, the
Sudan, Ferguson, MO and many other places in the world today, both near to and far from
home, we pray that love and peace will prevail in the Lord's name. Amen.
God our Father, you reveal that those who work for peace will be called your children. Through the prayers of St. Andrew Corsini, who excelled as a peacemaker help us to work without ceasing for that justice which brings truth and lasting peace. We ask this through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
