Please consider joining us in prayer and solidarity with Pope Francis as we enter into a 9 day novena praying for all farmers, especially during Covid-19.
The novena starts Thursday, May 7 and concludes on Friday, May 15th… the Feast day of St. Isidore, Patron saint of farmers. St. Isidore, the patron saint of farmers, was born in Spain in 1070. He worked on a local farm and lived a life of simplicity, prayer, and faith. He died in 1130.
Our farmers represent a very vulnerable population with 3x the virus infection rate of other ethnicities.
More information on the Catholic Rural Life novena, as well as a printable copy of the novena prayers, can be found on the group’s website. Each day’s prayers will be livestreamed at facebook.com/catholicrurallife.
