Prayer to Saints Arnold and Joseph

Loving God, you called Arnold and Joseph to follow your Son, the Divine Word, in proclaiming the Gospel to all peoples.

Burning with love for him and filled with his Spirit they dedicated themselves totally to the work of spreading your Kingdom of peace and love. Their example has inspired many generations of missionaries in many parts of the world. May it continue to inspire us today.

Inflame our hearts like theirs with a burning love for Christ who calls us to the same mission.

Guide us to build communities where dialogue is learned and life-giving relationships are created.

Shape our communities by your Son’s self-giving in the Eucharist, so that we may become signs of your never ending love for our world.

Teach us to rejoice in the abundant diversity of peoples and give us a loving heart ready to embrace all peoples of our one world. Transform our one world into one heart fully alive with Christ’s Spirit. Amen.
