Lord Jesus Christ,
Proclaim Your message and put it into practice
is the mission of Your Church.
Thank You for the trust
You put into every person.
Thank You for our Blessed Alphonse Marie
Who is an example for us.
Grant us the gifts through which her work was penetrated:
Trust and self-confidence, courage and joy,
Personal responsibility and solidarity,
Solidarity for all who suffer
And willingness to help in all emergency situations.
Strengthen our faith to meet the world
And not evade their demands.
Raise in us hope that we will spread joy
And sow good seeds where we care for people.
Strengthen our love
that we may work responsibly in the development of the Church
And a society in which the focus is on people.
May our community be a beginning
For Your Kingdom which is coming.
Amen.
