God of right judgment, you always listen to the prayers of those who love. In faith we pray: Teach us your ways, O God.

Increase your Church’s development and reception of the spiritual, intellectual, and creative gifts of women.

Free our hearts from all that keeps us from extending hospitality to those in need of love and care.

Give discretion and prudence to those who hold positions of authority.

Our Father . . .

May God bless us with hearts overflowing with the inexpressible delights of love, through Jesus our friend.

Amen.
