\"Prosper<\/a><\/p>\n

The re-founder of Benedictine life in France in the 19th century, Dom Prosper Gu\u00e9ranger<\/strong><\/a> (1805-1875) has a cause introduced (2005) for study for possible sainthood. While no one is perfect in this world, there is reason to believe that God has made a saint of his monastic servant. The ideas and works point in a certain direction of the quality of the person being proposed for study but these things do not completely identify the person.<\/p>\n

I chose this date to introduce the invitation to pray for the beatification of Gu\u00e9ranger because it is the date on which the newly formed Benedictines professed their solemn vows at Abbey of Saint Paul outside the Walls in Rome in 1837.<\/p>\n

Prayer for the Beatification of Dom Prosper Gu\u00e9ranger<\/strong><\/a>:<\/p>\n

God our Father, your servant Dom Prosper Gu\u00e9ranger, Abbot of Solesmes, guided by the Holy Spirit, helped a multitude of your faithful people rediscover the meaning of the liturgy as the source of true Christian life. May his devotion to your Holy Church\u00a0and his filial love for the Immaculate Virgin, inspired by the mystery of the Incarnate Word, be a light for Christians of our own day. Deign, O Lord, to grant the favour we ask you by his intercession, so that his sanctity may be recognized by all and that the Church may soon allow us to invoke him as the one of your blessed and one of your saints. Through Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
