Prayer for Renewal
Father, we come before you in a synodal spirit of prayer and petition.
Empower us to deepen our communion,
to participate more fully in the life of our Congregation, and to renew our missionary zeal.
Give us light and strength to know your will and to live it in our lives. Help us to renew the heritage of our beloved Congregation: a heritage we have received as gift, a heritage we are called to entrust to others.
Give us faith in our mission and hope for the future. Guide us by your wisdom and support us by your power.
Bring us together to foster collaboration, promote dialogue, and engage in a process of spiritual renewal.
With courage, may we imagine a future that responds to the signs of our time.
Grant us always the grace to journey together.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
