September 11 – Saint Adelphus of Remiremont

Dear Father, before Saint Adelphus of Remiremont (d.670) was born, an angel appeared in a dream to his mother and greeted her with, “Rejoice, because you will conceive and bring forth a new Paul, the Bishop Adelphis.”  It was then that she knew she would give birth to a holy man destined to serve the Church.  I ask him to pray for an increase in the activity of holy angels in my life.  O Lord, when they carry a message to me, give me ears to hear them.  When I need assistance, remind me that they are ready and able.  When I need encouragement, help me to feel their presence and receive their guidance.  Saint Adelphus, pray for me.  Amen.
