Saints celebrated on the 29th of April
ST FIACHNA, CONFESSOR
Saint Fiachna was a native of Desies, in Munster [Ireland], a monk of Lismore, and disciple of St Carthagh the Younger, in 630. By the most perfect spirit of obedience he laid the foundation of a most sublime gift of prayer and all virtue. He is titular saint of the parish of Kill-Fiachna, in the diocese of Ardfert.
PRAYER:
O God, who gladden us with the annual feast of blessed Fiachna, mercifully grant that, while honouring the anniversary of his death, we may also imitate his deeds. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.
