Pray for each other’s needs then conclude with this prayer:

God of new beginnings,

with Mary,

we say yes again.

We commit ourselves

to listen deeply,

to serve without needing to

be at the centre,

to build communities

of belonging.

Give us courage when

the way is undertain,

humility when we need

to change,

and faith to begin what

our time is asking of us.

May we bring Christ to life

in ordinary, gentle

and real ways.

May the Marist story become

living hope through us.

Amene.

 

 

  Marist Moment

“The young Marists gathered at Fourviere could never have imagined the global reach of their dream. Yet the heart of their vision remains unchanged. Inspired by Mary, Marists are still called to bring the life of Christ to birth wherever they are found.”

~ Br Peter Carroll, Superior General of the Marist Brothers
