O great and all-praised apostle and evangelist John the Theologian, confidant of Christ, our warm intercessor and quick helper! Pray to the Lord God to grant us forgiveness of all our sins, as much as we have sinned from our youth in our entire life with our deeds, words, thoughts and all our feelings: at the end of our souls, help us sinners to get rid of airy ordeals and eternal torment, and through your merciful intercession we glorify the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit now and ever and ever forever and ever.
