An original devotional prayer written for this companion. Pray slowly, bringing your own intentions before God. This is not a prescribed liturgical formula.
Teksto sa pag-ampo
Holy Spirit, Lord and giver of life, I offer myself to your guidance. Take my mind, that I may seek truth; my heart, that I may love generously; my will, that I may choose what pleases God. Renew the grace of my baptism and confirmation. Give me wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety and fear of the Lord. Form in me the likeness of Jesus. Keep me faithful in prayer, humble in service and steadfast in love, for the glory of the Father. Amen.
Dugang nga pag-ampo sa komunidad
Wala usba ang orihinal nga pag-ampo sa ibabaw. Kining lahi nga bersiyon sa komunidad adunay dugang nga mga tuyo ug tubag. Usa ang mangulo ug ang tanan motubag sa gitakdang mga bahin.
Let us gather in the presence of God, remembering those who pray with us and those who cannot be here. We bring our gratitude, our needs, and our willingness to care for one another.
God of love, unite our hearts in prayer and teach us to serve you together.

Community intentions
For every gift entrusted to us, teach us to use it for service rather than recognition or control.
Lord, hear our prayer, and help us become instruments of your mercy.
For decisions before our community, give us patient discernment, freedom from selfish ambition, and courage to follow the Gospel.
Lord, hear our prayer, and help us become instruments of your mercy.
Pause for silent prayer. Intentions may be offered aloud freely; no one is required to share.
For the intentions spoken and those held quietly in our hearts, let us pray to the Lord.
Lord, receive our prayer and sustain us in your love.
Let us entrust ourselves and those for whom we have prayed to the Father.
Merciful Father, receive our prayer through Jesus Christ. Where we can offer help, make us willing; where we must wait, give us patience. Keep us attentive to one another beyond this gathering. May the grace of this prayer take root in our homes, our work, and our choices, so that your love becomes visible through our lives. Amen.
