As we honor the saints,
let us pray that we may imitate their example,
loving God and serving God’s people.
 
 
All-powerful and ever-living God,
source of all holiness,
the work of your hands is manifest in your saints;
the beauty of your truth is reflected in their faith.
May we who aspire to have part in their joy
be filled with the Spirit that blessed their lives,
so that having shared their faith on earth
we may also know their peace in your kingdom.
Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
ICEL 1974
