“Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good;” Romans 12:9

Dear Lord God,

Strengthen our communities in Christ to radiate the love and compassion found in Your Sacred Heart.

Grant that this profound love, exhibited in us, draws more and more who rejoice in the truth of the gospel.

Grant that our Christ communities are able to withstand the arrows of the devil and that all bounce off their breastplates.

Grant that all Christ communities are able to discern the voice of the evil one, choosing not to be swayed.

Grant that all our Christ communities live and stay in the Spirit, experiencing the fruits of love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, kindness, and self-discipline.

Thank You, Lord Jesus, Amen.
