For Amber’s hero, from the Lorica of Saint Patrick (Saint Patrick’s Shield)~
~+~
Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me,
*Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me, *
*Christ on my right, Christ on my left, *
*Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, *
*Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me, *
*Christ in the mouth of every man who speaks of me, *
*Christ in the eye that sees me, *
*Christ in the ear that hears me. *
I arise today
Through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity,
Through a belief in the Threeness,
Through a confession of the Oneness
Of the Creator of creation.
*Amber, please read the full version?~

Also for your hero, a prayer to the Holy Spirit, by Saint Augustine~
Breathe into me, Spirit of God, that I may think what is holy.
Drive me, Spirit of God, that I may do what is holy.
Draw me, Spirit of God, that I may love what is holy.
Strengthen me, Spirit of God, that I may preserve what is holy.
Guide me, Spirit of God, that I may never lose what is holy.
Amen.

Welcome, Amber! Keeping both you and your hero in my prayers,
