Saint Peter Claver

God, you sent your only Son to set free a world laboring under the slavery of sin and death. Through the intercession of Saint Peter Claver, inspire many with zeal to lead to freedom all those still enslaved. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen

The Gift of Work

O God, giver of all good gifts, you give the gift of work as both a blessing and a task. In whatever work you have given us to do, small or great, grant that we may serve with love and praise with joy, through Christ our Lord. Amen

23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time

God faithful and true, you speak to us day by day in your Word proclaimed in our assemblies, in the secret prayer of our hearts, in the events of our lives. Open our ears when they grow too dull to hear your voice, that we may bear joyful witness to all that we have seen and heard, through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen
