August 11 | Memorial of St. Clare of Assisi, Virgin
St. Clare of Assisi (July 16, 1194 – August 11, 1253) was a medieval Italian noblewoman who left her wealthy life behind to become a follower of St. Francis of Assisi. She founded the Poor Clares, wrote their groundbreaking monastic rule, and is the patron saint of television and eye disorders.
O glorious Saint Clare, God has given you the power of working miracles continually, and the favor of answering the prayers of those who invoke your assistance in misfortune, anxiety, and distress.
We beseech you, obtain for us from Jesus through Mary, His Blessed Mother, what we beg of you so fervently and hopefully, (here mention your need privately) if it be for the greater honor and glory of God and the good of our souls. Amen.
