St. Luke Novena - Day 6

St. Luke is the patron saint of physicians and surgeons. You can ask him to pray for you if you are a physician or a surgeon. You can also ask him to pray for someone you know who is a physician or a surgeon.

St. Luke is also the patron saint of unmarried men. You can ask him to pray for you if you are an unmarried man. Or you can ask for his intercession on behalf of an unmarried man whom you know.

Additionally, St. Luke is the patron saint of artists. You can seek his intercession if you are an artist, or you can ask him to pray for another artist.

You can pray the St. Luke Novena for any intention!

Dear Lord, we thank You for giving us St. Luke as an example of holiness. Help us to imitate the love of You he showed in writing his Gospel and showing the importance of care for the poor.

St. Luke, we know few details about your life. But your writings show us that you were very conscious of the need to care for the poor out of our love for God.

Please bring my petitions before God Whom you loved so dearly!

Your Gospel tells of the importance of charity towards the poor in the story of the rich man and Lazarus. Your Gospel also tells us how Mary praised God for filling the hungry with good things.

Pray for me, that I may always be conscious of the needs of the poor around me. Pray that I may always seek to care for my poor brothers and sisters in Christ out of love for God.
