Prayer for Professions

First Monday Prayer for Professions – Please pray with us  –

We ask you, Almighty God, to bless and prosper the Fellowship of Saint Augustine. Give us fervor in devotion, diligence in labor, singleness of purpose, a burning love for you and for the souls whom you have created for yourself. Guide us by your Holy Spirit, fit us for the work of mercy, give us the grace of final perseverance. In all hours of weakness be our strength, in all times of temptation give us the grace to glorify you. Give us an increase in number that will best enable us to fulfill the end for which you have chosen us, and bring us together in the eternal bonds of your love; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen.
