Prayer for freedom from fear and hatred through the intercession of Blessed Jerzy Popieluszko in the year of the 40th anniversary of his martyrdom.
Lord Jesus Christ, you called Blessed Father Jerzy Popieluszko to zealously proclaim the Gospel of love, truth and true freedom, to overcome evil with good, to defend others from harm and hatred, to heal the wounds of broken hearts.
Through his intercession, I ask you to change my heart, thoughts, feelings and will, so that in my life I will overcome evil with good. Help me to free myself from pride, greed, anger, deceit and selfishness.
Grant that I may live in truth and freedom, and through my inner transformation contribute to the rebirth of faith in my family, community, homeland and the whole world. I ask You, God, for the grace of the canonization of Blessed Jerzy Popieluszko, so that he may become a model of faithfulness to Christ, the Church and to others for the whole world.
