Praise be to you, Lord, for all those who, sometimes even without knowing you, put your Word into practice
and in whom you dwell.
Praise be to you for all the men and women who bring joy and encouragement to others, who
devote time, attention and energy to helping those in need.
Praise be to all those whose names we do not know and to whom we owe a good and safe life
, all those men and women who serve us in thankless and sometimes dangerous tasks.
Praise be to you for all those who speak to us of you through music or images, all those who
create beauty, all those who penetrate the secrets of life and the universe for the good of their
brothers and sisters in humanity.
Praise be to you for our elders, for their fidelity, for their welcome, for all those who have been or are
still light on our path.
