Father of all creation, By the sacrifice of your only begotten Son You have united us as one family, Brothers and sisters in Christ.

On this evening, As we walk through the streets of our city, We ask you, O loving God, To bless our works of fellowship and care, And grant us the grace of seeing Jesus In those we serve.

We ask Mary, Mother of God, To pray That the happiness of giving enter our hearts, That the happiness of faith be granted to us all.

May the Saints pray for us. May the Holy Spirit guide us. We ask this through Jesus Christ, Our Lord.
