O Blessed St. Martin de Porres, you understand well what it is to suffer racial injustice and prejudice.
I humbly come to you seeking prayers for (name person) and all who are experiencing racial injustice or discrimination in their lives.
Ask the Lord to bless them with loving and forgiving hearts, to fill them with healing and peace, and to bless them with the ability to be tolerant of other’s narrow-mindedness.
Pray, dear saint, that they be kind, gentle and giving as you were, and that they are able to pray for those who mistreat them.
Thank you, St. Martin de Porres for your prayers and intercession. Amen.
