Prayer to Blessed Daudi Okelo and Jildo Irwa

Lord, you enkindled in the hearts of the blessed catechists Daudi and Jildo
An ardent desire to proclaim the Gospel,
And through their martyrdom strengthened the early growth of the Church in Uganda.

By their example, strengthen us in our faith,
And grant that we may share it with our brothers and sisters.

Through their intercession, give us the grace we need in this moment,
And may we all come to enjoy the fruits of your redemption.

We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ,
Your Son who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, God for ever and ever.
Amen.
