Saint Thomas à Kempis

Thomas von Kempen JS

A contemporary portrait of St Thomas à Kempis, painted by an anonymous painter eleven years before Thomas’s death.

Holy Father, who hast nourished and strengthened thy Church by the inspired writings of thy servant Thomas a Kempis: Grant that we may learn from him to know what is necessary to be known, to love what is to be loved, to praise what highly pleaseth thee, and always to seek to know and follow thy will; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
