Morning Prayer Saint David of Wales, March 1st
with Fr Frank Ryan OMI & June Craig

Morning prayer feast of Saint Daivd March 1st

Bore da! Good morning friends! Today is March 1st and welcome to morning prayer the feast day of Saint David – the patron saint of the Wales. Join June Craig and Fr Frank Ryan OMI in Colwyn Bay, North Wales, for this morning’s time of prayer and reflection. Thanks to June, Welsh speaker, for sharing with us some of the prayers in the Welsh language.

The spirit of Saint David – giving everything to Christ, knowing that we are nothing if we are not embedded in the spirituality that Christ came to give us – that is the challenge of today’s reading from St Paul and of today’s feast day.

St. David is the patron of the Welsh people, remembered as a missionary bishop and the founder of many monasteries during the sixth century.
 
O God, who graciously bestowed on your
Bishop Saint David of Wales
the virtue of wisdom and the gift of eloquence,
and made him an example of prayer and pastoral zeal;
grant that, through his intercession,
your Church may ever prosper and render you joyful praise.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
Amen.

St David of Wales, pray for us!

Thank you for joining us for morning prayer on the feast of Saint David of Wales.
