As Catholics, we recognize that prayer is of the utmost importance. In our mission to act with the Church to serve people around the world, we begin with prayer.
Transform Us, O Lord

Loving God,
you mark the seasons
and passage of time,
reminding us of the beauty of change.
As we start to see the signs
of the first fruits of the harvest,
and as we prepare for the turning of the leaves,
we witness the beauty of your creation,
transforming from one season to the next.
Amid this beauty,
we are reminded that change
is a tool of growth.
In endings and new beginnings,
we turn our hearts to you,
that you may
help us grow as well, O Lord!
Amen
