All:
You have come to the aid of your servant, Israel,
to remember the promise of mercy,
the promise made to our ancestors,
to Abraham and his children for ever.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the
Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall
be, world without end. Amen.
I will walk in your presence, O Lord,
for your ways are truth.

Let us turn to Jesus who walked the roads and
paths of our planet, who passed through its rivers
and sailed on its lakes;
Jesus, may you be our constant companion
wherever we travel,
our sure guide and protector, our companion in
peace and love.
Jesus, you have formed us as the pilgrim people of
God;
let us appreciate that life’s journey is a pilgrimage
of faith and that its goal is to be with you, Jesus,
forever.
In your earthly life, Jesus,
you went to the edge of society,
befriending, comforting, forgiving and healing
those no one else respected;
may we, your Church, follow your example,
and draw into the community those who have
become alienated, hurt, scandalised, and
forgotten, so that we are truly the people of God.
