People of all nations

O God you called Abraham and Sarah to journey into the unknown,
and to be a blessing for all nations.
We believe that you call us too, in the Congregation of Notre Dame de Sion
to journey into the unknown future and
to be a blessing in the church and the world.
You have called us to follow your son Jesus, the Word made flesh,
to proclaim your faithful and everlasting love.
We ask you to renew the branches of the tree of Sion
with numerous religious and lay vocations
in order to give witness to your love
for the Jewish people and all peoples of the earth.
Holy Spirit, give to those whom you call
the strength to respond with joyful and generous hearts.
Mary, Daughter of Sion, help young people and all of us to say YES as you did
because you believed God’s promises would be fulfilled.
Amen.
