O holy Apostles, Peter and Paul, I choose you this day and forever to be my special patrons and advocates; thee, Saint Peter, Prince of the Apostles, because thou art the Rock, upon which Almighty God hath built His Church; thee, Saint Paul, because thou wast fore-chosen by God as the Vessel of election and the Preacher of truth in the whole world.

Petitions to St Peter and St Paul
O holy Apostles, Peter and Paul, I choose you this day and forever to be my special patrons and advocates; thee, Saint Peter, Prince of the Apostles, because thou art the Rock, upon which Almighty God hath built His Church; thee, Saint Paul, because thou wast fore-chosen by God as the Vessel of election and the Preacher of truth in the whole world.
Obtain for me, I pray you, lively faith, firm
hope, and burning love; complete detachment from myself, contempt of the world,
patience in adversity, humility in prosperity, attention in prayer, purity of
heart, a right intention in all my works, diligence in fulfilling the duties of
my state of life, constancy in my resolutions, resignation to the will of God
and perseverance in the grace of God even unto death; that so, by means of your
intercession and your glorious merits, I may be able to overcome the
temptations of the world, the flesh and the devil, and may be made worthy to
appear before the chief and eternal Shepherd of souls, Jesus Christ, Who with
the Father and the Holy Ghost liveth and reigneth for endless ages, to enjoy
His presence and love Him forever. Amen.
Our
Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.
V. Thou shalt make them princes over all the earth.
R. They shall be mindful of Thy name, O Lord.
Let us pray:
V. Thou shalt make them princes over all the earth.
R. They shall be mindful of Thy name, O Lord.
Let us pray:
O God, Whose right hand
raised up blessed Peter, when he walked upon the water and began to sink, and
thrice delivered his fellow Apostle Paul from the depths of the sea, when he
suffered shipwreck: graciously hear us and grant, by the merits of them both,
that we also may attain unto everlasting glory.
Who livest and reignest world
without end. Amen
An indulgence of 500 days
