Prayer of Saint Ephraim

O Lord and Master of my life, grant not unto me a spirit of idleness, of discouragement, of lust for power, and of vain speaking.
But bestow upon me, Thy servant,the spirit of chastity, of meekness, of patience, and of love.
Yea, O Lord and King, grant that I may perceivemy own transgressions, and judge not my brother, for blessed art Thou unto ages of ages. Amen.

Dear parishioners,

Yours truly, father Obrad
