Youth Ministry Prayer

Loving God,

You sent your Son Jesus into this world to be an example to us all.
From a young age He followed Your will.
He preached, healed and led people to You.
He suffered, He died and He rose.

We pray for us, the youth and young adults of the Archdiocese of Hobart.
Give us knowledge, courage and a willing heart to be the disciples of today.
To learn God's will, to share God's message and to be God's people.
To know, to love and to serve with youthful zeal.

Bless us with happiness, friendship, love, laughter, peace, hope, faith, achievement and direction.

We dedicate and entrust our youth Ministry work, for, with and by young people to Blessed Mary MacKillop. We pray that through her intercession we may find ourselves, find God and find our place in the life and mission of our Church community in Tasmania.

Amen
