We are planted in love and built on love. With all the saints we are given the power to grasp the breadth and the length, the height and the depth of Christ’s love, which is beyond all telling. Let us pray, therefore:
– Father, be with your people.
O God, source of all holiness, the glory of your gift shines out in all your saints:
we glorify you for the riches of your grace, revealed in them.
– Father, be with your people.
Father, you have moved the saints to offer their lives to you, and have showed us in them the face of your Son:
move us to follow in their steps, to journey in hope towards the Lord of life.
– Father, be with your people.
We venerate today with great devotion the saints in heaven:
we pray for the unity and peace of your holy people on earth.
– Father, be with your people.
Father, through the sacrifice of your incarnate Son, you have bound yourself forever to mankind:
as we celebrate this feast, we pray that we may be numbered among the saints who see your face.
– Father, be with your people.
