LORD OF THE MISSION








Lord Jesus, you called me by name


And sent me to work in your vineyard.


You continue to call many women and men


To be brothers and sisters to one another    


And to be open to all creation.    


                                                                                      










 


Teach us to be with you


To be your witnesses among our brothers and sisters.  
Help us to communicate the good news of your Reign,


Help us to be compassionate and


courageous in the face of so many difficulties.

Help us to be committed to the building up of a better world.






Help us to be aware each day of your call


Show us where we must be to enter into contact


with our brothers and sisters.


Show us how we can reach their hearts.                                                                                         







 


                                                                                      

 

Teach us true poverty


How to have free hearts.
Fill us with an apostolic spirit


So that we may be led by your spirit
to wherever the need is greatest.







Give us your peace


Show us the paths that lead to communion


May we truly desire communion,


Proclaim it and live it always.  


                                                                                      







    


                                                                                      

 

Keep us close to you


So that we may always commit ourselves


To the mission of uniting


into one family all humankind.


Amen.
