O Saint Alexius, we ask you to hear our prayers at the beginning of the new month of June and help the Alexian Brothers around the world, in Ireland, Germany, the Philippines, Hungary, America and Belgium, to carry out their ministry faithfully. Bless them with your strength and wisdom so that they may be able to help in the most appropriate way those who need them. Help them to work for those in need in a spirit of love and devotion, and to see your presence in all. Give them the strength and perseverance to serve faithfully in the midst of difficulties. Please grant that through their work more and more may discover your love and presence in the world around them. Bless the ministry of the Alexian Brothers and be with them every step of the way. Amen.
