Father of Jesus Christ,
you sent your Son to serve humanity: teach us to serve, too, with simplicity…
To do justice to the poor, the oppressed and those who are despised,
may we be your servants!
That refugees and migrants may be welcomed and respected, may we be your servants!
That all may have bread and peace, shelter and work, may we be your servants!
So that every people may benefit from the fruits of its labour, and build its social life in freedom
may we be your servants!
That prayer may unite us in praise and fraternal intercession, may we be your
your servants!
