OPENING
PRAYER : Lord,
teach us to be generous. Teach us to love you and serve you as you deserve. To
give and not to count the cost; to fight and not to heed the wounds; to toil
and not to seek for rest; to labour and not to look for reward, save that of
knowing that we do your most holy will.
IN SOLIDARITY WITH THOSE MOST IN NEED :
Though from an affluent family himself, Ignatius deliberately chose the path of
poverty in order to experience first-hand what the poor went through. This
enabled him to reach out to them in a practical and tangible manner.
(ALL):
God of all that is visible and invisible, we ask that we may not let things
control or use us. Let our possessions not take such a hold of us that we find
it difficult to let go. Let us know deep in our heart that all is temporary and
passing and that you alone are permanent and everlasting. This we ask in Jesus’
name. Amen
CLOSING PRAYER: Take Lord, receive all my
liberty, my memory, my understanding, my entire will. You have given them to
me, to you I return them. Give me only your love and your grace that is enough
for me.
