Longing for peace, our world is troubled.
Longing for hope, many despair.
Your word alone has pow’r to save us.
Make us your living voice.

darkness.Christ, be our light!

We thank you for calling us to be your sons and daughters.

Through the intercession of St Mary of the Cross MacKillop and St Patrick, let us

world, wherever that may take us.
