When I want something very much, I thank God beforehand for I feel God will certainly grant what He has been thanked for

God our Father, in Your care and wisdom You extend the kingdom of Christ to embrace the world and give redemption to all. May the Church reveal for us the mystery of Your love and may that love become effective in our lives.

Father, source of unity and love, make Your faithful people one in mind and heart that Your Church may live in harmony, be steadfast in its profession of faith and secure in unity. May it always be Your holy people, united as You are with the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen

St Mary MacKillop, pray for us
