Leader: As we gather together, we pause to breathe.

Leader: We gather as missionary disciples in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

All: Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful, and kindle in us the fire of your love.

Leader: We remember the holy women and men who came together in the Upper Room and felt the fire of your love.

All: Come Holy Spirit, fill our lungs with your breath so we can be faithful witnesses to God’s loving mercy.

Leader: We remember the holy women and men throughout the ages, animated by your grace, who lived and preached the good news of salvation in every nation.

All: Come Holy Spirit, give us courage and strength to bring the saving love of God to the people living in the peripheries of our neighborhoods, our country, our world.

Leader: We remember the holy women and men who, this day, reach beyond themselves, step outside of their comfort zone, cross various borders, to encounter the stranger in the name of God.

All: Come Holy Spirit, raise us up on eagle wings and send us forth just as the Father sent Jesus.

Leader: Merciful Father, pour forth your Spirit on us this day as we come together as missionaries seeking to do only your will – to be passionate for Jesus and passionate for his people. This we pray, as we do with all things, in the name of Jesus.

All: Amen
