Bl. Álvaro del Portillo

O God, merciful Father, You granted your bishop Blessed Alvaro, the grace of being, with our Lady’s help, an exemplary pastor in the service of the Church and a most faithful son and successor of Saint Josemaría, the Founder of Opus Dei. Grant that I also may respond faithfully to the demands of the Christian vocation, turning all the circumstances and events of my life into opportunities to love You and to serve the kingdom of Jesus Christ.

Deign to grant the canonisation of Blessed Alvaro, and through his intercession grant my the favour I request... (make your request). Amen.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be.
