Lord Jesus, the life of Saint Martin de Porres is powerful and inspiring. Born of a Spanish father and a mother who was a former slave, Martin faced challenges throughout his life. In spite of this, Martin served as an apprentice to a doctor before he had turned thirteen. He eventually became a Dominican brother, where he continued to treat the sick and the injured. He helped to found an orphanage and cared for all who came to him in need.

While we may not be able to achieve all that Martin accomplished in his life, may we strive to be more aware of those around us who are hurting or in need. Guide us to respond as generously as we can with love, sensitivity, and kindness.



Amen.
