God of love,
source of mercy and compassion,
weave your dream for Notre Dame of Mt. Carmel
into the fabric of our lives.
Give us a renewed commitment to proclaim
the Good News of Jesus Christ, our Savior,
to our families, our neighbors, and those on the margins of life.
Help us to be you, Jesus, in welcoming and
caring for all. Holy Spirit, surround us
with your love,
fill us with your grace,
and strengthen us for service in Jesus’ name.
Make us your missionary disciples!
We ask this through the intercession of Mary,
our Mother and Patroness, Amen.
