Archdiocesan Prayer to the Holy Spirit © Archdiocese of Brisbane 2005 Holy Spirit, we ask for a renewed outpouring of your power, energy and gifts upon our Archdiocese so that our efforts to embrace the person and vision of Jesus, to build Communion with God and others, and to engage in Christ’s Mission in our world will touch the hearts of many people throughout southeast Queensland and make a difference in our world. Amen. We ask you Holy Spirit to touch us: in our unbelief, that we may come to know Christ; in our doubt and confusion, that we may grow in God’s wisdom and ways; in our sinfulness, that we may repent and turn towards life; in our weakness and suffering, that we may be strengthened and encouraged; in our pursuit of peace and justice, that we may be persevering in this work; in our relationships and work that we may be courageous and passionate in living the Gospel. Amen. “The harvest is abundant but the labourers are few, so ask the master of the harvest to send out labourers for his harvest”. (Luke 10:2) We pray for vocations to the priesthood and religious life to serve our archdiocese.
