Prayers for
Seafarers
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus
Have mercy on all seafarers
Our Father. . .
Hail Mary. . .
Our Lady Star of
the Sea, Pray for us
St Peter, Pray for us
St Andrew, Pray for us.
Let us pray
O God, in Your
kindness, lead all seafarers through the
perils of the ocean and bring them back in
safety to their homes and friends. Guide
them through the many temptations their way
of life occasions. Inspire them to make
fruitful use of the clubs and chapels Your
Church has established for them, and grant
that they may learn to love and follow You
with strength and loyalty through Christ Our
Lord. Amen
