Saint Scholastica Prayer
Prayer of the Day
Eternal God, by whose grace Scholastica became a burning and shining light for your people: give us courage to prefer nothing to Christ. By the power of the Holy Spirit help us to share patiently in his sufferings, that we may be able to rejoice forever in his kingdom. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

I went in search of a prayer to Saint Scholastica after seeing her icon and reading her story in the above book. The icon was by Gwyneth Thompson-Briggs really captured my attention. I framed it and put it over my wife's desk with the Saint Benedict one so that they would be behind me on teams calls for work. I have been praying this prayer for about a year now. This is one of two prayer to Saint Scholastica I have been praying, the other being a Prayer in Honor of Saint Scholastica.
