A Prayer Before the Canonical Visitation – 2025
Good God,
Where people hope, they see further,
Where people live out of love, they see deeper,
Where people believe, they see everything in different light.
Strengthen us
to form our life in this hope
so we can see further.
Give us courage
to live our everyday life in Your love
so we can see deeper
and strengthen our faith
so we can give
witness about You by our life and our actions.
We ask this through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
