2023 Parish Mission

Prayer for Our Parish Mission
God our Father,
grant that our parish mission be a time of grace for all :
a time of growth for our young,
a time of refreshment for those retired,
a time of renewal for our families,
a time of healing for the broken,
a time of joy for the sorrowing,
a time of challenge for the complacent,
a time of hope for the sinner,
and a time of homecoming for those who have been away.
May the mission bring down your richest blessings on us,
the parishioners of Saint Bede.
We ask this through the intercession of Mary and all the saints,
in the name of Jesus Christ who is Lord. Amen
