September 22 (leadership)
Holy Lord, Saint Maurice was a Christian officer in charge of a legion of converts in an anti-Christian army. He had a very challenging and significant responsibility to help his men remain strong in the Faith despite persecutions. When he and his men refused to sacrifice to the gods, they were martyred. I ask him to pray for me-and all church leaders-to be courageous and full of wisdom in guiding people into becoming better Christians-living the way You call us to live, standing up for the true Faith, and building a team that supports each other in the midst of evil and violence. Saint Maurice, pray for me. Amen.
