GOD, ETERNAL TRUTH, FATHER-MOTHER SOURCE OF LOVE:
You, who from all eternity call to life and summon us to meet you,
awaken with your voice the hearts and minds of young people,
that they may perceive your inexhaustible love and respond to you without fear,
with a total and generous dedication of their lives.

GOD, OUR SALVATION AND OUR STRENGTH, DIVINE WORD:
Awaken in your Church, young listeners of your voice, passionate about your Kingdom, strong prophets, sensitive to the pain of the world,
passionate about humanity, defenders of its dignity,
servants of justice, and builders of peace.

GOD, INFINITE GOODNESS, HOLY SPIRIT:
Make us true witnesses!
Deliver us from being small, mediocre disciples.
Every day focus us on you, so that our lives may be
Your word, a living gospel for our young people.

HOLY AND TRIUNE GOD, LORD OF LIFE:
Carry out your work in us and through us as you did in Saint Arnold Janssen.
We have heard your voice … and like Abraham, Sara, Moses, Miriam, David, Esther, Peter, Mary, we say to you:
Yes, Lord! I want to be your witness, your transparency, wherever you want me.

AMEN.
