• Father in heaven,
  may the faith you have given us
  in your son, Jesus Christ, our brother,
  and the flame of charity enkindled
  in our hearts by the Holy Spirit,
  reawaken in us the blessed hope
  for the coming of your Kingdom.
   
  May your grace transform us
  into tireless cultivators of the seeds of the Gospel.
  May those seeds transform from within both humanity and the whole cosmos
  in the sure expectation
  of a new heaven and a new earth,
  when, with the powers of Evil vanquished,
  your glory will shine eternally.
   
  May the grace of the Jubilee
  reawaken in us, Pilgrims of Hope,
  a yearning for the treasures of heaven.
  May that same grace spread
  the joy and peace of our Redeemer
  throughout the earth.
  To you our God, eternally blessed,
  be glory and praise for ever.
  Amen
