  Parish Prayer

Gracious God,
We, the parish family of St. Monica,
embraced by your love,
seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit,
to know and live Your will.
Nourished by the Eucharist,
may we commit ourselves
to a life of prayer and service.
Transform us to live Your Word
 more profoundly.

Saint Monica, model of patience,
prayer and perseverance,
intercede for us, that we, too,
may
be awakened to the sacred and
trust in God's perfect timing.
 
 Amen
