O God, as you sent your Holy Spirit upon the early Church in the fiery tongues and the mighty wind of Pentecost, so now, we ask you to send that same Spirit upon us that we may go forth to proclaim the Gospel of Christ to every creature. We humbly pray that you deepen your Trinitarian life within us; make us effective and holy witnesses of Jesus’ death and Resurrection; help us to live our Catholic faith with such joy, conviction and love that others will be drawn to the sacred mystery of your Church and the powerful grace of the sacraments. We implore you to make us ministers of your Word, in speech and action, in truth and charity, in the mystery of Jesus’ cross and the light of his resurrected glory. Amen.
(Written by Auxiliary Bishop Donald J. Hying)
O Dios, así como mandaste tu Santo Espíritu sobre la Iglesia primitiva en las lenguas encendidas y el fuerte viento de Pentecostés, ahora, te pedimos que mandes ese mismo Espíritu sobre nosotros, para que podamos salir a proclamar el Evangelio de Cristo a cada criatura. Humildemente oramos que tú aumentes tu vida Trinitaria entre nosotros; haznos testigos santos y efectivos de la muerte y Resurrección de Jesus; ayúdanos a vivir nuestra fe católica con tal alegría, convicción y amor que atraiga a otros al sagrado misterio de tu Iglesia y a la gracia poderosa de los sacramentos. Te suplicamos que nos hagas ministros de tu Palabra, en la expresión y la acción, en la verdad y la caridad, en el misterio de la cruz de Jesús y en la luz de su gloriosa resurrección. Amen.
