Memorial Mass for Fr. Jean-Claude St. Martin

Eternal Rest Grant Unto Him, O Lord

Father Jean-Claude St. Martin

As Saint Augustine prayed, “I have tasted you.
Now I hunger and thirst for more”.
Lord, in my relationship with you, I have experienced that same taste. I beseech you to bless all those who have helped me to know you and to remain steadfast in faith throughout my life and to my vocation. Help me, through this ministry that you have entrusted to me, to celebrate being a Priest by becoming the hands of Christ to those
I am being called to serve.

Help me to show your mercy and kindness to your people, so that, nourished by your Word and fed by your Body and Blood your people may be transformed into
living witnesses to your eternal love.

Rev. Fr. Jean-Claude St. Martin
May 24, 2008

This prayer, composed by Fr. Jean-Claude, was printed on a prayer card in honor of his ordination to the priesthood.
