Father,

you have appointed your Son Jesus Christ eternal High Priest.

Guide those he has chosen

to be ministers of word and sacrament,

and help them to be faithful

in fulfilling the ministry they have received.

 

Father,

you call those who believe in you to grow in perfect love

by following in the footsteps of Christ your Son.

May those whom you have chosen to serve you

as Canons Regular of the Immaculate Conception

provide by their way of life

a convincing sign of your kingdom

for the Church and the whole world

 

We ask this through Christ, our Lord. Amen.
