Prayer for Beatification or Canonization or intercession

          Heavenly Father, source of all that is holy, in every age, you raise up men and women who live lives of heroic love and service.

          You have blessed your Church through the life of Simon Bruté, first bishop of Vincennes and spiritual director to St. Elizabeth Ann Seton. Through his prayer, his intellect, his love, and his pastoral care, Simon Bruté formed future priests and guided your Church in the early days of our country.

          If it be your will, may he be proclaimed a saint.  We ask this through Jesus Christ, our Lord.

          Amen.
