May church leaders be a voice for the voiceless,

We pray to the Lord.
Like Juan Diego, Rene Goupil, and Thomas Merton
May the gospel of Christ guide us
as we face new and difficult situations in our world.

especially those who are abused, lost or oppressed.
We pray to the Lord.
Like Charles Lwanga, Lawrence Ruiz, and Kateri Tekawitha,
Let us dedicate lives in service to the gospel,
Despite persecution and hatred.
We pray to the Lord.
With Maximilian Kolbe, Edith Stein, Josephine Bakhita,

and all who have died
now sing in the heavenly chorus.
We pray to the Lord.
