Standing Together in Prayer
Celebration of blessed father Yakoub Al-Kabbouchi of the Syriac Catholic Church
Prayer from the novena of the Blessed Father Abouna Yakoub Al-Kabbouchi in the Catholic Church:
O Lord Jesus Christ, marvelous in your saints, perfecting love in your Church through your faithful servants like the Blessed Father Yakoub. He has served you throughout his life, consecrated himself and his priesthood with complete fidelity to you and your holy Church. Following your Bible, like the Good Samaritan, took care of the old, the sick, the needy, and the youth, building hospitals, shelters, and schools for them and establishing the Sisters of the Cross, a living testimony to your presence in the sufferings of humanity.
