O St. George, Faithful servant of God and invincible martyr, Saint George; favored by God with the gift of faith, and inflamed with an ardent love of Christ, thou didst fight valiantly against the dragon of pride, falsehood, and deceit. Neither pain nor torture, sword nor death could part thee from the love of Christ. We fervently implore thee for the sake of this love to help us by thy intercession to overcome the temptations that surround us, and to bear bravely the trials that oppress us, so that we may patiently carry the cross which is placed upon us; and let neither distress nor difficulties separate us from the love of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Valiant champion of the Faith, assist us in the combat against evil that we may win the crown promised to them that persevere unto the end.
Watch over us, O sainted warrior!
Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One:
Have mercy on us!
Holy God, Holy Might One, Holy Immortal One:

Let us pray:
O God, our refuge and our strength, Who art the Author of mercy, hearken to the devout prayers of Thy Church and this Thy College (family, etc.), and grant that what we faithfully beseech, we may truly obtain.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
