A Prayer to Blessed Eugene Bossilkov, a Pasionist Martyr.

O Bishop Bossilkov, remind me to understand the world-wide meaning of Jesus’ suffering.

May your unjust trial and execution in 1952 serve as a reminder not to be numb to contemporary daily injustices around me.

O Blessed Bossilkov, grant me courage to seek creative and practical ways to bring peoples and cultures of the world together.

May the Passion of Jesus Christ Be Always In Our Heart.
