Teksto sa pag-ampo
Sacred Heart of Jesus, source of mercy and patient love, draw my heart close to yours. Forgive my coldness and the ways I have wounded others. Teach me to love without counting the cost and to speak with gentleness and truth. Bring peace to our home, courage to those who suffer and hope to those who feel forgotten. Receive my joys and sorrows as an offering of love. Jesus, meek and humble of heart, make my heart like yours. 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.

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.
