PRAYER FOR SEAFARERS
Dear Lord, we ask you to take all Seafarers into your care and protection.
Make them alert and wise in their duties. Help them to be faithful in the
time of routine prompt to decide and courageous to act in anytime of crisis.
Protect all our Seafarers from the dangers and perils of the sea; even
in storms-natural or spiritual-grant that there may be peace and calm within
their hearts.
When they are far from homne, far from their loved ones and from their
homeland, give them the grace to be quite sure that, wherever they are,
they can never be beyond Your loving concern.Take good care of our loved
ones in the days and weeks and months when they are separated from us sometimes
with half the world between us. Give us the grace to be true to them ,
and keep them true to us. And when we have to part, bring us together again
in safety and lolalty.
On Mother Mary, Star of the Sea, guide us and our beloved Seafarers.Though
separated often, help us to grow in love of one another and Your Son, Jesus.
Amen
