As the New Orleans Saints began their season, Rev. Tony Ricard, Saints Team Chaplain, leads the Who Dat Nation in a pre-season petition for Super Bowl blessings.
Lord, hear our prayer:
God of Many Nations,
With joy in our hearts, we the people of the Gulf South join with all the angels in heaven as we proclaim, “Who Dat Say Dey Gonna Beat Dem Saints?”
Since the dawn of time, you have been calling your saints to levels of heroic greatness and miraculous victories.
Thousands of years ago, you called Abraham and Sarah to unite as one and form a nation of good and holy people. Through their love and your providence, the Hebrew nation formed the foundation of a multitude of prophetic saints.
