Prayers to Saint Gall of Alemannia
O Saint Gall,
you left your homeland
and followed Christ upon long roads,
labouring beside your brethren with patience and faith.
When the road before you changed,
you did not turn from your calling,
you did not lose heart,
but received the path God left open to you.
In the hidden valley you kept prayer, poverty, and trust,
and there your quiet fidelity bore fruit for generations.
Teach us to persevere when the road is hard,
when strength grows small,
and when our plans are taken from us.
Help us to remain faithful,
to walk as far as God asks of us,
and to rest in His will
with humble and steadfast hearts.
Amen.

Prayer to Saint Gall for
the Sick
Prayer to Saint Gall for
a Life of Prayer
O Saint Gall,
you travelled far from your homeland
and followed the road placed before you.
When the way changed
and your strength was tested,
you remained faithful.
Pray for us when the road grows hard,
when our plans fail,
and when we no longer know
where the next step will lead.
Help us not to lose heart,
but to continue with patience,
trusting that God can bring good
even from the paths we did not choose.
Faithful intercessor,
pray that we may persevere to the end.
Amen.
O Saint Gall,
the sick came to your resting place
seeking the help of your prayers,
and generations remembered you
as an intercessor in bodily suffering.
Pray for those who are ill,
especially those weakened by pain, fever,
or long infirmity.
Ask the Lord to give them strength,
peace in uncertainty,
and relief according to His mercy.
Pray also for those who care for them,
that they may serve with patience
and not grow weary in love.
Saint Gall,
remember the sick before God
and pray for their healing and consolation.
Amen.
O Saint Gall,
you left the travelled road
and entered the hidden valley,
where prayer became the centre of your life.
Teach us to seek God in silence,
not only when life is peaceful,
but when the world around us is restless
and our own thoughts will not be still.
Pray that we may make room for prayer,
guard it faithfully,
and return to it when we have wandered.
Help us to listen before speaking,
to remain before God without hurry,
and to carry what we receive in prayer
into the work and duties of each day.
Saint Gall,
pray that our hearts may remain turned toward God.
Amen.
Honour Saint Gall with us in prayer and scripture.
This video tribute invites you to reflect on his quiet fidelity,
unite your petitions with his intercession, and remember his steadfast perseverance on the road, in hardship, and in prayer.
