Prayer to St. Serapion of Pskov

O most blessed our Father Serapion! Today you stand before the throne of the unapproachable Light. Do not depart from us, servant of God (names), by the spirit, protecting us from the arrows of the enemy and all the charms of devils and the machinations of the devil, our good shepherd. Look upon us mercifully, and raise us up to the height of heaven to those who are devoted to the earth: through your intercession, ask our All-merciful God for the peace of His Church, deliverance from troubles, and aversion from sins, and salvation. Again, help us to bear the yoke of Christ in complacency, patience, and spiritual joy, and teach us to pray forever, so that we may be preserved without blemish at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to Him you now stand joyfully, after your labors and labors, glorifying with all the saints in the Trinity the glorified Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, to the ages of ages. centuries.
