Come Holy Spirit,

fill our hearts with wisdom,

love and courage.

Make us more like Christ

in our words and actions.

Bless the work of your Church.

Renew us in the desire

to make Christ

known and loved

in the world today.

Bless the work of our parish.

Guide all that we do

so that our church is a place

of mercy and service

for all who are seeking you.

Deepen out love

for the Presence of Christ

in the Eucharist

and guide us in prayer and action

as we journey towards Synod 2020

to become the Church

you are calling us to be.

We ask this through

Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
