Prayer for Pope Saint John XXIII Parish Family

Loving Father, we thank you for our parish family/  that is centered in the Eucharist and united in one body, Your Son, Jesus Christ. Thank you for the grace-filled parishioners/ who together answer your call to share the Good News to all of God’s people.

You are with us in every transition and change. As we commit ourselves to our parish family, we trust in your presence and abounding love for us. We are thankful to our clergy and parish leaders who have blessed our community with leadership, faithfulness and love. 

We are grateful for our parish family members/ who share their many talents and skills. We pray in a special way for our members who are challenged in committing to our parish family. Help us to remove the obstacles/ that stand in the way of moving forward as one family as we seek to further Your Kingdom. We ask this in your Holy Name.

Walk With Us in Our Search​


 

Help us discover our own riches; don’t judge us poor because we lack what you have.​

Help us discover our chains; don’t judge us slaves by the type of shackles you wear.​

Be patient with us as a people; don’t judge us backward simply because we don’t follow your stride.​

Be patient with our pace; don’t judge us lazy because we can’t follow your tempo.​

Be patient with our symbols; don’t judge us ignorant because we can’t read your signs.​

Be with us and proclaim the richness of your life that you can share with us.​

Be with us as a companion who walks with us… neither behind nor in front… in our search for​

life and ultimately God!

We are approaching our 175th anniversary (May 31, 2025) as an archdiocese and hoping to capture participation in the Season of Service. As you know, the goal is to get local Catholics living out our legacy of faith by serving others. We’re trying to reach 175,000 hours in honor of the 175th Anniversary and as of right now we have around 30,000 hours.
