Enlighten, strengthen, and save

Ministry
Written By Opawa-St Martins Parish

O Christ,

You ascended in glory on the Mount of Olives in the presence of your disciples.

you who penetrate all things with your divinity,

you were enthroned at the right hand of your Father

and sent down upon your disciples the Holy Spirit

who enlightens, strengthens, and saves our souls.

Amen.

 

We pray for those we know who are sick or in need of our prayers.

We pray for those in Long Term Care.
