The July 30 Rock the Vote concert in Xavier University, Cagayan de Oro City was dedicated to former Pres. Cory Aquino. Xavier U President, Rev Fr. Jett Villarin, SJ, led everyone in reciting the prayer. We continue praying for the repose of her soul, and for the health of our nation, in this time of collective grieving and mourning.
PRAYER FOR PRES. CORY AND OUR NATION Dearest Lord, We call upon You in these times of uncertainty and darkness so that we may find hope and light in your Almighty goodness. As we come together as one people and one nation to empower the youth and give a voice to the voiceless, we offer our prayers to a lady, a mother, and a leader who has been our icon of peace and democracy for almost three decades now. Lord, we pray for President Corazon C. Aquino, so that she may find good health, serenity, and peace in Your Holy embrace. Grant her the fortitude to withstand her personal struggles. Grant her Your light as she faces uncertainty. Grant her Your wisdom so she may find meaning behind her suffering. We also pray for our country, our beleaguered nation that has withstood countless revolutions and internal struggles. May we her people find the strength to fight for our country, our democracy, and the future of our families. To this end we recite the Prayer of Serenity: Lord, grant us the serenity to accept the things we cannot change, the courage to change the things we can, and the wisdom to know the difference. So help us, God. Amen.
