Parish Prayer for St. Michael

Loving Creator, at our Baptism we were given the gift of faith.

Continue to bring our faith to life. In your goodness bless this mutual mission of the Redemptorist community and people of St. Michael in Old Town.

May we who have gathered around your altar and now join in prayer, open our hearts to welcome all your children, those known and unknown, sisters and brothers all. May our dedication to living our faith be supported by the parish staff, the pastoral council and this community of faith of St. Michael’s.

When the bells ring in our tower, may they be a reminder to all in our neighborhood of your unconditional love and ever abiding presence in every moment of our lives. May they ring to celebrate the faith you inspire within us. May they ring to call all of us to discipleship in Christ.

Loving Creator, accept our prayers, continue what you have begun in us. Deepen within us what you have made known through Jesus your Son, and inspire us through the wisdom and encouragement of your Holy Spirit, for you are One God, forever and ever.       Amen
