Arise Prayer

Gracious God and Father,
we enter into your presence
realizing you know us better than we know ourselves.
You know the cares and sufferings we carry in our hearts.

You call us to holiness
and we trust you to lead us together on our journey
to be a renewed Church,
for with you all things are possible.

Create us anew in Jesus Christ your Son.
Liberate us from all that keeps us from you.
Heal us from every form of sin and violence.

Transform us to live your Word more profoundly.
Awaken us to the sacred; rebuild trust among us.
Enliven our parishes; reunite our families.

May your Holy Spirit empower us
to live as a community of love,
freed to share in your work
of recreating our world
and restoring justice.

We believe you are doing something new,
calling us to arise together in Christ
to celebrate the fullness of life. Amen.

「起来! 在基督内共融」 祷词

慈爱的天主父，
在祢面前，我们知道
祢比我们自己更认识我们，
祢知道我们内心的挂虑和忧苦。

祢召叫我们努力成圣，
我们相信祢会带领我们
一起成为一个新生的教会，
因为在祢内一切都是可能的。

在祢的圣子耶稣基督之内，
请祢重新塑造我们，
把我们从一切使我们远离祢的事物中拯救出来，
从各种罪恶与暴力中治愈我们。

改变我们，使我们更深刻地活出祢的圣言，
唤醒我们内的圣善，在我们当中重建信任，
使我们的堂区充满活力，我们的家庭重归一心。

愿祢的圣神赐予我们能力，
活出一个充满爱的团体，
自由地参与祢再造世界与重建正义的工作。

我们相信祢在做新的事工，
召叫我们在基督内起来，
庆祝生命的圆满。阿们。
