is in front of us. Amen or Glory be to the Father…

A prayer to start the day

Lord Jesus, may everything we do begin with you, continue with Your help, and be done under
Your guidance.
May our sharing in the Mass free us from our sins, and make us worthy of Your healing.
May we grow in Your love and Your service, and become a pleasing offering to You; and with
You to Your Father.
May the mystery we celebrate help us to reach eternal life with You.
