P: Our help is in the name of the Lord.

All: Who made heaven and earth.

I cast out the demon from you, creature medals, by God the Father almighty, who

made the heavens and the earth and the seas and all that they contain. May all

power of the adversary, all assaults and pretensions of Satan, be repulsed and driven

afar from these medals, so that they may be for all who will use them a help in mind

and body; in the name of the Father almighty, of Jesus Christ, His Son, our Lord,

of the Holy Spirit, the Advocate, and in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is

coming to judge both the living and the dead and the world by fire.

All: Amen.

Lord, have mercy. Christ, have mercy. Lord, have mercy. Our Father prayer

P: And lead us not into temptation.

All: But deliver us from evil.

P: Save your servants .

All: Who trust in you, my God.

P: Let us find in you, Lord, a fortified tower.

All: In the face of the enemy.

P: The Lord will give strength to His people.

All: The Lord will bless His people with His peace.

P: Lord, send us aid from your holy place.

All: And watch over us from Sion.

P: Lord, heed my prayer.

All: And let my cry be heard by you.

P: The Lord be with you.

All: And with your spirit.

Let us pray.

Almighty God, lavish dispenser of every good, we humbly ask that by the prayers of

St. Benedict you pour out your blessing on these sacred medals, impressed with

letters and signs ascribed to you. Let all who will wear them with hearts intent on

good works deserve to obtain health of mind and body, your holy grace, and the

indulgences that have been granted to us . And may they escape by your merciful

help all attacks and wiles of the devil, and finally appear in your presence sinless and

holy; through Christ our Lord.

All: Amen.

Let us pray.

Lord Jesus Christ, who willed in redeeming the whole world to be born of a Virgin, to

be circumcized, rejected by the Jews, betrayed with a kiss by Judas, bound in chains,

crowned with thorns, pierced with nails, crucified between robbers, wounded with a

lance, and to die at last on the cross; I humbly ask, by this your sacred passion, that

you expel all attacks and wiles of the devil from the person who devoutly calls on

your holy name, using these words and signs ascribed to you. May it please you to

lead him (her) to the harbor of everlasting salvation, you who live and reign forever

and ever.

All: Amen.

May the blessing of almighty God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, come upon you and

remain with you forever.

All: Amen.

Saint Benedict, pray for us.
