Saint Martin of Tours:
“Patron of Poverty, France, Geese,
Horses, Innkeepers, Tailors, Vineyards.”*
Saint Martin, include me in the wide range
of persons, professions, and living beings
you might be called upon to support.
Help me this day not to hesitate
to reach out for assistance
or to step up
where I can make a difference.
Prompt me to take time
to lift my mind and heart
to our God who is
Creating, Redeeming, and Sanctifying.
Amen.
Why does Gracie Morbitzer depict Martin on a motorcycle?
See The Modern Saints:
Portraits and Reflections on the Saints,
Edited and illustrated by Gracie Morbitzer,
New York: Convergent Books, 2023, p. 257.
In no way an absurd question:
WHAT MIGHT YOU BE CONSIDERED PATRON OF?
