The Moor-Slayer.
O glorious Apostle, Saint James, who by because of your fervent and generous heart was chosen by Jesus to be witness of His glory on Mount Tabor, and of His agony in Gethsemane; you, whose very name is a symbol of warfare and victory:
obtain for us strength and consolation in the unending warfare of this life,
that, having constantly and generously followed Jesus, we may be victors in the strife and deserve to receive the victor's crown in heaven. Amen.
Prayers for Spain after yesterday's tragedy. Story here.
UPDATE: It appears most of the victims were pilgrims for today's feast of Santiago:
De todo corazón mi pésame a Galicia por el terrible accidente del tren procedente de Madrid con destino Ferrol, cuatro kilómetros antes de la estación de Santiago de Compostela.
Precisamente en la víspera de la festividad del apóstol Santiago, Patrón de España.
Mis oraciones por todas las víctimas, heridos y fallecidos, así como mi apoyo y dolor a sus familiares.
