Prayer to Begin the Fall 2011 Season

The new season of  Why Catholic?  begins throughout the Archdiocese of Louisville this week. Let us pray, one and all, for the success of the program and the renewal of God's people, the Church.

A Disciple's Prayer

Loving God and Father, help us to be people of prayer, committed to the person and message of Jesus your Son.

Help us to grasp the integrity and beauty of the truths of our faith and the transforming power of your grace.

Nourish and strengthen us as people of faith, disciples of Jesus, committed to the mission of the Church, and eager to share the gospel without restraint.

Let our hearts burn within us as we catch glimpses of your heart in Jesus, for through him, we know your loving plan for us. We ask this through Jesus the Christ, who lives with you and the Holy Spirit in one loving Trinity. Amen.
