The tender mercy of God has given us one another.

Catherine McAuley

Prayer
Like Abraham and Sarah,
Like Mother Ursula Frayne and her companions, may we respond to the call of God.
Like sisters of Mercy before us, may we be a channel for the Mercy of God.
May we follow the teaching of Jesus not just in words, but in action.
May we make a journey to the heart.
Like Mother Ursula Frayne, Sister Anne Xavier Dillon and Sister Mary Joseph Sherlock,
may we be willing to sail to new shores.
May we dare take the risks of discipleship.
May we be people of conscience.
May we find the living water.
May we dream for the future, to believe other ways are possible.
May we hear the sound of the deep.
God, be the deep spring inside each of us.
We ask this through Jesus our Lord,
Amen
