JANUARY 19 SAN PONZIANO DI SPOLETO

PRAYER

To you, young Ponziano, faithful witness of Christ, patron of the city and of the diocese, our admired praise and our prayers: look at this people who entrust themselves to your protection; teach us to follow Jesus way, truth and life; intercede peace and prosperity for our families; protect our young people so that, like you, they grow strong and generous on the way of the Gospel; preserve us from the evil of the soul and the body; defend us from natural disasters; obtain for all the grace and blessing of God.

O our most holy protector Martyr Ponziano, who by virtue of the tripled Creed you uttered in your death, you freed them in the past years, on the anniversary day of your triumphs, from triple and frightening earthquake shocks: we pray you free us again in times to come
