1. For the members of our local communities as they strive to bring the care, compassion and forgiveness of Christ to one another.
2. For parents, relatives, friends and benefactors, and for those who have recommended themselves to our prayers.
3. For the communion of Saints, may their example inspire us to ever-deeper faith, and today we especially seek the intercession of Saints Adalbert and George, both martyrs for the faith.

FURTHER REFLECTION:

“All apostolic endeavors of the Congregation begin from [a] place of intimacy with the Risen Lord and flow into sharing this relationship with our broken world.” (Witnesses to the Resurrection, 10)
