A Parish Saint? Yes, Please...



Prayer for the Beatification of the Servant of God
Mother M. Richard Beauchamp Hambrough, O.SS.S.
(1887 – 1966)

We thank you, Lord,
because You have moulded a simple and generous heart
in Your servant Richard,
capable of total confidence
and heroic adhesion to Your project of life.
Grant to us,
who venerate her memory,
that we may follow in her steps,
and have her as a sister and as an advocate
before Your throne of mercy.
Glory be … 3 times

In the event of graces granted through the intercession of the Servant of God you are kindly asked to inform:
Motherhouse, P.za Farnese, 96 - Rome - 00186 - Italy
Tel. +39 06-68892596.

Here's my prayer:

Dear Mother M Richard Beauchamp Hambrough
Your life bore witness to the merciful love of God
And you were graced with a fervent love for Christ
Giving shelter to those who needed it most.

Please ask the Lord to bung £250,000 to the building fund of St Mary Magdalen's Church, Brighton, where you once worshipped, and saw for yourself how beautiful it once was, and grant that it may be restored to its former glory as a House of Prayer, where the Faithful can congregate to worship God in spirit, truth and safety, in honour of your virtue and sanctity and to the Glory of God.

Amen.
