Saint Quote: Saint Boniface


Saint Boniface by Cornelis Bloemaert, c. 1630



Let us pray the gracious defender of our life, the only sure refuge of those in trouble, that His right hand may keep us safe amidst these dens of wolves, and that He may guard us from harm, so that the footsteps of apostates walking in darkness may not be found, where should be the beautiful feet of those who carry the peaceful light of the gospel, but that the most gracious Father and God may help us to gird up our loins, with bright candles in our hands, and that He may enlighten the hearts of the heathen to gaze at the glorious gospel of Christ. Amen.

Saint Boniface from a prayer attributed to him
