Saint Thomas Aquinas Prayer

• St. Thomas Aquinas,
• patron of students and Catholic schools,
• I thank God for the gifts
• of light and knowledge he bestowed on you,
• which you used to build up the Church in love.
• I thank God, too,
• for the wealth and richness of theological teaching
• you left in your writings.
• Not only were you a great teacher,
• you lived a life of virtue.
• and you made holiness the desire of your heart.
• If I cannot imitate you
• in the brilliance of your academic pursuits,
• I can follow you in the humility and charity which marked your life.
• As St. Paul said,
• charity is the greatest gift,
• and it is open to all.
• Pray for me that I might grow in holiness and charity.Pray also for Catholic schools,
  
• and for all students.
• In particular, please pray the growth of the Catholic school here at
• Our Lady of the Lake Parish.
• Amen.
