God of justice, you blessed St. Leo in his pursuit of truth  and made him a great leader of your Church. In company with him we pray: God, in your wisdom, hear our prayer. 

You strengthen your Church in Word and Sacrament: deepen our love for Scripture and our understanding of Eucharist.  

You anoint your Church to herald your kingdom in word and deed: equip the baptized with every grace needed to establish Christ’s reign of peace.  

You guide your Church by the light of the Holy Spirit: perfect our hope in Christ this Jubilee Year.  

Our Father . . . 

May God bless us, save us from danger, and fill our hearts with the light of truth, through Jesus, our Saving Help. 

Amen.
