PALLOTTINE PRAYER
Holy Spirit, you live and reign in your Church. Fill us with your power. Give us the spirit of wisdom and understanding, of counsel and strength of knowledge and piety and reverence. Make us one in you and may your church live as one in your love.  Father of light, from whom every good gift comes, send your Spirit into our lives with the power of a mighty wind, and by the flame of your wisdom open the horizons of our minds. Loosen our tongues to sing your praise in words beyond the power of speech, for without your Spirit we could never raise our voices in words of peace or announce the truth that Jesus is Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
St Vincent Pallotti, pray for us.
