St. Clare of Assisi
Today is the Feast of St. Clare of Assisi.
She is the patroness of television because she miraculously saw and heard Mass, even when she was too sick to attend!
Collect
God of mercy, you inspired Saint Clare with the love of poverty. By the help of her prayers may we follow Christ in poverty of spirit and come to the joyful vision of your glory in the kingdom of heaven. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
