Memorial of St. Oliver Plunkett

Reflection

“The saints live not after the fashion of the world…The dignity of the saints is so great because they are not of this world, but ‘of the household of God.’” ~ St. Thomas Aquinas

Prayer

God of steadfast love,

As members of your household, we desire to reflect your compassion in every act of care we offer—whether tending to a patient, comforting a family, or supporting a colleague. May the way we serve reveal the depth of our love for you. Inspired by the unwavering faith of St. Oliver Plunkett, who remained faithful even unto death, help us to live with courage and conviction. Strengthen our hands and hearts as we walk the path of love and mercy beside you. Amen.
