Liturgical Ministers Prayer
May the Holy Spirit guide us
as we endeavor to prayerfully and reverently
serve the Lord, our God,
as a Liturgical Ministers at Holy Souls Parish.
May we lead by the example
of our own personal spiritual lives,
and by our actions each and every day.
As we serve,
may we always remember that
we are all brothers and sisters in Christ;
and that true worship comes from
humble and contrite hearts, and love of one another.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
