God of Great Love,
We commit ourselves to living
in the most sincere, true and
profound humility so that we might
give voice to your gospel of peace.
Empower us with your grace of union and
reconciliation so that we might be impelled
to give our whole lives for those deprived
of bread, peace and love.
Allow us the courage to give voice
to the cries of the poor,
to the terror of those at war,
to the humiliation of the many who are disenfranchised.
May your healing and unifying love flow
through us in such a way that it honors
every neighbor on Earth, without distinction,
in a manner that glorifies you as
the Creator, Redeemer and Sanctifier of all life.
Amen.
Lyn Szymkiewicz, CSJ
