Pope St. Gregory the Great

Almighty and merciful God, who didst raise up Saint Gregory of Rome to be a servant of the servants of God, and didst inspire him to send missionaries to preach the Gospel to the English people: Preserve in thy Church the catholic and apostolic faith they taught, that thy people, being fruitful in every good work, may receive the crown of glory that fadeth not away; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Father, Jose Ricardo and I prayed for you at his tomb like you asked.

Thank you so much for your prayers, and your message reminded me of the time I was privileged to say Mass at that altar.
