Prayer in Honor of Saint Scholastica
Prayer of the Day
O God, to show us where innocence leads, you made the soul of your virgin Saint Scholastica soar to heaven like a dove in flight. Grant through her merits and her prayers that we may so live in innocence as to attain to joys everlasting. This we ask through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, One God, forever and ever. 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 Saint Scholastica Prayer.
