Heavenly Father,
author and inspirer of all things holy.
We thank you for the gift of this church
filled with the power of your Word and Sacrament.

Send forth your Spirit
and guide those who will design and construct our church.
As we gather in your name,
touch our hearts with generosity
so that we may raise up a house of God
for the proclamation of your kingdom.

Gracious God,
you call us to be your Church.
Help us to become a true community
that will witness and proclaim,
celebrate and share
the hope and charity we have in Jesus Christ,
as exemplified by St. Josephine Bakhita,
our universal sister and model of hope.
Through her intercession,
and of Mary,
our Mother of Charity at the foot of the Cross,
we ask this in Jesus' name.
Amen.

• a community of faith, committed to the the Greatest Love of Jesus Christ Crucified, and Mary, Mother of Charity at the foot of the Cross.
• a community of prayer, nourished by the Word of God, the Eucharist, and the traditions of the Church reflected in the way we live and celebrate.
• a community that welcomes every woman and man, young and old, of all cultures, to equal discipleship in Jesus Christ.
• a community that is missionary, open to the needs of the world, committed to the promotion of justice, peace, and the stewardship of creation.
• a community that is not afraid to face its pain and yet deeply trust "in the hope that saves."
