God of truth, we praise you for the light that shines through the life of St. Clare, and we pray: 

Help us to live by your Word, O God.  

Deepen love between spouses, and come to the aid of those who experience difficulty in their marriage. 

Help us to live by your Word, O God.  

Prosper and uphold the work of the Poor Clares and all who give their lives to the service of those in need. 

Help us to live by your Word, O God.  

Give wisdom and discretion to all who work in communications and media. 

Help us to live by your Word, O God.  

Our Father . . .  

May the light of Christ be a lamp for our steps and a sure guide for our path, by the power of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
