In preparation for Luke Live!
Dear God,
source of all life and light,
We come
before you asking your blessing
On our
Parish
We differ
from one another in many ways:
In ages, in
interests,
And in
experiences.
Still we
share
In being
called to serve you
As members
of your holy Church.
Empower us
to explore your Gospel more fully
So that our
lives may be further enriched
By
encounters with your Word.
As we
prepare for our
Fill our
hearts with your grace
So that we
might be open to your message.
Heal our
wounds,
Strengthen
our commitments,
Rekindle
our love,
And remind
us of our worth
In your
eternal plan.
Bless our
missionary, Fr. James DiLuzio,
and grant
him safe travel to us.
We ask this
through Jesus Christ, Our Lord
Who lives
and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
One God
forever and ever.
Amen.
