Opening Prayer

Jesus, awaken hope and trust in us because you always come to us, and you say to us: ‘Come to me, you who are overburdened, and you will find real rest.’  Amen.

(silent reflection)

Prayer of the Bible

Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.  Fear the Lord, you his saints, for those who fear him lack nothing.  The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.      
-Psalm 34:8-10


(Free expression of praise and thanksgiving to God)

Confession of Sin

I will get up and go to my father, and I will say to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you.’    
-Luke 15:18


(Time of silence for confession of sin)

The Words of Jesus

“You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ But I say to you, Do not resist the one who is evil. But if anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also. And if anyone would sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. And if anyone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. Give to the one who begs from you, and do not refuse the one who would borrow from you.
-Matthew 5:38-42

(Think deeply on these life-giving words of Jesus)

Prayer for Ourselves and Others

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.   
-Romans 12:12

(Take time to bring before God our own needs and the needs of others)

Closing Prayer 

Patrick’s Breastplate
Christ, as a light-illumine and guide me.  Christ, as a shield-overshadow me. Christ under me; Christ over me; Christ beside me, on my left and on my right.  This day be within and without me, lowly and meek, yet all-powerful.  Be in the heart of each to whom I speak; in the mouth of each who speaks unto me, Lowly and meek, yet all-powerful.  Christ as a light, Christ as a shield, Christ beside me, on my left and my right.       
​
-Saint Patrick (385-461)


 Go, sent by the Father into the world to love & serve in the name of Jesus, empowered by the Holy Spirit
