PRAYER FOR DIOCESE OF DALLAS SYNOD 2024

Good and gracious God, heavenly Father,

we thank You for the wisdom and grace

You have given us through Your Son, Jesus.

Increase our faith so that we may hear the voice of our Good Shepherd

and joyfully follow the path His love illuminates before us.

As we prepare for the synod in the Diocese of Dallas,

send forth anew the Holy Spirit to guide us.

Grant that our vision and understanding may be enlightened

as we discern the mission of this local church in our time,

while never losing sight of Your will and our hope to be with You in heaven.

We entrust this synod to the maternal care of our patroness, Our Lady of Guadalupe,

who intercedes for us and accompanies us,

and whose “yes” in love and faith we seek to imitate.

We pray with confidence through Christ, our Lord. Amen
