JUBILEE 2000 PRAYER

FOR HONG KONG

DIOCESAN SYNOD

Almighty and everlasting God, your Son established the Church so that your people, filled with the Spirit, may become your fervent witnesses to the world. By the merits of our predecessors, and through the message of the Gospel, we have become your children. On the occasion of the Jubilee 2000, we assemble for the Diocesan Synod to pursue your divine will in order to continue the endeavours of the past and to open up new horizons for generations to come. As we strive together to draw up a plan for a new evangelization in a new millennium, we implore you to send forth your Holy Spirit to guide us, pastors and flock, so that united in mind and heart and pooling our resources, we may become better witnesses and our faith be strengthened. Grant that we, in word and in action may enlighten those who are in error, care for the little ones and the needy, practice justice and help spread the Kingdom of God. We make our prayer through Christ Our Lord, Amen.

Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be to the Father

Blessed Martyrs of China, pray for us.
