Let us pray,
We are blessed in Christ,
Loved and saved by Him,
And see our humanity in Him.
May God bless this gathering of friends
And help us grow in love and understanding of His teachings.
And may He bless this food which we are about to eat.
We ask this in Christ the Lord.
Amen.

Father of mercy,
give your people help and strength from heaven.
The birth of the Virgin Mary’s Son
was the dawn of our salvation.
May this celebration of her birthday
bring us closer to lasting peace.
Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son,
who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
