God of love, you want for us a life of fullness, a life beyond all we could imagine. You know the desire of our hearts. May we find our joy in you.

Christ Jesus, Good Shepherd, you went to the point of giving your life so that every human being might know that they are loved. Open our hearts to know you as you know us. And then we will recognize that you welcome even those who are from a different fold into a communion without borders. May we always listen to your voice.

Holy Spirit, you bring to mind all that Jesus has said to us. Awaken in us trust in his love, so that in our turn we may be able to love the people God entrusts to us. And we understand that by your humble presence you fill and transform the universe.
