Our Savior has made us a nation of priests to offer acceptable sacrifice to the Father. Let us call upon him in gratitude:
Preserve us in your ministry, Lord.
Christ, eternal priest, you conferred the holy priesthood on your people,
– grant that we may offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to the Father.
Preserve us in your ministry, Lord.
In your goodness pour out on us the fruits of your Spirit,
– patience, kindness and gentleness.
Preserve us in your ministry, Lord.
May we love you and possess you, for you are love,
– and may every action of our lives praise you.
Preserve us in your ministry, Lord.
May we seek those things which are beneficial to our brothers, without counting the cost,
– to help them on the way to salvation.
Preserve us in your ministry, Lord.
