Feast of Saint Charles Borromeo
Almighty Father, you gave Saint Charles Borromeo the singular privilege and grace of serving his flock and performing his ministry with dedication, in the service of the poor and marginalized. You equipped him with qualities that made him Bishop and leader at a very young age, working out tremendous reforms with sanctity and humility.
He was responsible in bringing the Holy Shroud to Italy. Grant that by imitation of such a venerable life, we too may imbibe the virtues of humility and service, to be worthy of your favor, in Jesus’ Name. Amen
