imbue in us the generosity of the spirit to always do Your will,
to prepare our hearts to live the radicality of the Gospel
and steadfastly work for the coming of your kingdom;
Confirm our common vocation as preachers of your Word,
with a life of holiness and self less service to your people;
Set us afire with Your love,
so that we can joyfully share with others
the light of Your truth and the warmth of Your compassion.
Fulfill our desire to live in holiness
and to so enjoy the vision of Your glory forever.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
