Father, God of all creation, we give you thanks for your many blessings. 
Be with our community at this time as we prepare for our parish mission.

May our hearts and minds be renewed by the truth of your living presence. 
Bless our parish at this special time of renewal and may each be refreshed through your many gifts.
We make this prayer through the intercession of Mary, the mother of God, saints Peter, Paul, Patrick and all your saints through Christ Our Lord.  AMEN.
