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
