Heavenly Father, you call us from many lands to gather around your table. Grant
us the grace to embrace our multicultural diversity as we unite to celebrate
Eucharist as one Catholic faith community.
Bread of Life, You call us to be bread for the world. Open our hearts that we
may recognize Christ broken in our midst. Be our nourishment and strength as
we reach out with our hands to help.
Word of God, you speak of your love for us. Help us follow the example of your
Word as we welcome the stranger in our midst and be haven and consolation
to those in need.
Spirit of God, you give your wisdom to those who seek you. Show us the Way
as we pass on to all youths entrusted to our care the traditions, teachings and
values of our Catholic faith.
God our Father, infuse our hearts and minds with your will as we commit
ourselves to be hospitable and active in our parish ant to spread your
Good News to those who have yet to partake of Your feast.
We ask this through Your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
Special acknowledgement to Mercy Sobrevilla, whose help made this prayer possible.
