πΏO God, Blessed Bertrand used to attack people who did not share his beliefs, and he especially persecuted monks who were teaching the true Faith. Eventually though, he became a priest and helped form the new Dominican order. I ask him to pray for all those who do not believe me when I speak of spiritual truths. Help me, O Lord, to be patient and forgiving. Bless their minds and their hearts and anoint them to recognize the truth when they hear it. I offer up to You the sufferings I’ve experienced from persecution. Take my sufferings as a prayer for the conversion of unbelievers.
Blessed Bertrand, Pray for us. Amen.
