“Blessings” Prayer
Generous and loving God, You call us to be disciples of your son Jesus and good stewards of all your many gifts.
Open our minds and hearts to a greater awareness and deeper appreciation of your countless blessings.
Transform us through the power of your Spirit to nurture a stewardship way of life marked by faith-filled prayer, service to our neighbor and generous sharing.
Teach us to be faithful servants of your gifts. With Mary’s help, may we return ten-fold the gifts entrusted to us.
Bless our Parish with a deepening devotion to prayer, a growing commitment for service, and increasing levels of generosity as we work to advance the mission of both our parish and diocese.
We pray through Christ, our Lord. Amen.
