Eternal God…
Bless your Church with holy and faithful Priests,
Deacons, Brothers, and Sisters.
Give those you have called to the married state,
and those you have chosen to live as single persons in the world,
the special graces that their lives require.
Form us all in the likeness of your Son,
so that in him, with him, and through him
we may love you more deeply
and serve you more faithfully
always and everywhere.
