Almighty and eternal God, in your unfailing love you provide ministers for your Church. We pray for those whom you call to serve the Church as Sisters and Nuns in the United States. Inspire in them a generous response to those who would deny You. Grant them courage and vision to serve your people in our country that has become a mission field. May their lives and service call your people to respond to the presence of your Spirit among us that, faithful to the Gospel and hope of Jesus the Christ, we may gain courage to announce glad tidings to the poor, proclaim liberty to captives, set prisoners free and renew the face of the earth in these United States, where your truths are being denied.
Amen
