Vibrant Parish Life Prayer for Our Clustering Process
Gracious God, We are your people,
embraced by your love throughout all time.
As a community of faith, joined together
in the Catholic Diocese of Cleveland,
We ask you to fill us with new life.
Liberate us from all that keeps us from you.
Heal us from every form of sin and violence.
Reconcile us so that enemies become friends.
Transform us to live your Word more profoundly.
Open us to appreciate your presence in all ages, faiths and
cultures.
Awaken us to the sacred; nurture our relationships.
Enliven our parishes in the celebration and sharing of gifts.
Enable us to recreate our world and restore justice.
Fill us with joy to celebrate the fullness of life.
Empower us to be a community of love, growing in your
likeness.
Amen!
