Santo Toribio de Mogrovejo

I know it's a little late in the day but I couldn't let the day end without me posting on a saint from Peru.

Lord, You who wanted to expand the Church through the ministry of Saint Toribio de Mogrovejo and his great love of the truth, also raise up now in the Christian people those same virtues that shines forth in this holy bishop, so that the Church may grow constantly in faith and be renewed in holiness. Through Your son our Lord Jesus Christ.

Señor, tú que quisiste dilatar la Iglesia por medio de la actividad apostólica de santo Toribio de Mogrovejo y por su gran amor a la verdad, suscita también hoy en el pueblo cristiano aquellas mismas virtudes que resplandecen en este santo obispo, para que así la Iglesia crezca, constantemente en la fe y se renueve por la santidad. Por nuestro Señor Jesucristo, tu Hijo.
