Merciful God, in you we find help, and we praise you with our song. In company with St. Elizabeth Ann Seton we pray: Strengthen us by your saving Word, O God.
Uphold and prosper the Sisters of Charity in their service to those who need care, education, or temporal goods.
Strengthen us by your saving Word, O God.
Bestow your gifts of wisdom, grace, and knowledge to educators and school personnel.
Strengthen us by your saving Word, O God.
Animate all people toward a charity that reflects the joy of the Gospel.
Strengthen us by your saving Word, O God.
Our Father . . .
May God guide us by the light of faith and inspire us to bear Christ to all the world, by the power of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
