Loving and faithful God, you called St. John Neumann to serve you in faith and charity. In hope we pray: May your love and compassion fill the earth, O God.  

Strengthen your Church’s proclamation of Christ through spiritual and corporal works of mercy. 

May your love and compassion fill the earth, O God.  

Inspire youth ministers, vocation promoters, and all who nurture the faith of young people. 

May your love and compassion fill the earth, O God.  

Prosper the efforts of peacemakers, diplomats, and those who work in the United Nations. 

May your love and compassion fill the earth, O God.  

Our Father . . .  

May God strengthen us inwardly through the working of the Holy Spirit, that we may prefer nothing to the love of Christ. Amen.
