Loving and Generous God,

it is You who call me by name and ask me to follow You.

Help me to grow

in the Love and Service of our Church as we experience it today.

Give me the energy and courage of Your Spirit to shape its future. 

Open my heart that I may discern Your Holy Will

Inspire in me a love and desire to surrender myself
to serving others in the name of Your son, Jesus Christ.

Teach me to follow my paths in life guided by

Your Divine Word and Truth.

Inspire me to know You better and open my heart to hear Your call.

I ask this through Christ our Lord.  AMEN.
