PRAYER FOR THE PREPARATION OF MASS
God our Father, Lord of Life, you call us into your presence as the community of faith. As we
prepare to celebrate your love for us in this Eucharist, help us to open up to the grace we
will receive through your son, Jesus. Strengthened by the Holy Spirit, may we be renewed in
our faith, hope and love. Through the intercession of Mary and Joseph, may we one day
share the glory of your life in heaven. Amen.
