St. Augustine of Canterbury Prayers

By Jared Dees

May 27 is the feast of St. Augustine of Canterbury, the first bishop of England and the inspiration for many Catholic converts. Consider incorporating the following St. Augustine of Canterbury prayers on his feast day:

A Prayer for Christian Unity

Holy Father,
You have given us in St. Augustine of Canterbury, a great witness of Christian faith,
grant through his intercession a renewed Christian unity among people of all Christian communities
and in a particular way bless the relationship between the Anglican Church and Roman Catholic Church.
Grant this through our one Lord, Jesus Christ.
Amen.

English Collect for the Feast of St. Augustine of Canterbury

O Lord our God,
by your Son Jesus Christ you called your apostles and sent them forth to preach the Gospel to the nations:
We bless your holy name for your servant Augustine, first Archbishop of Canterbury, whose labors in propagating your Church among the English people we commemorate today;
and we pray that all whom you call and send may do your will, and bide your time, and see your glory;
through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
