Eternal God, source of all wisdom: be present with the Dioceses of Western New York and Northwestern Pennsylvania that we may hear your voice among the many voices, and be empowered to pray continually, imagine boldly, and choose prudently while we seek in all things to give you honor and glory; through Jesus Christ, who is one with you and the Holy Spirit to the ages of ages.
