Dear St. Anthony, comforting the sorrowful is a Spiritual Work of Mercy and a Christian duty. By word, attitude, and deed I should try to brighten their days and make their burden easier to bear. St. Anthony, Consoler of the Afflicted, may I remember when helping someone in sorrow that I am helping Jesus Christ Himself. Kindly mention my pressing needs to Him (Name you special intentions). Amen.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be...
