Core Value Number One: The Gospel and the Spirituality of the Blood of Christ call us, individually and as a congregation, to witness a life of conversion and renewal.
Becoming New Wine
Come, Holy Spirit, Come!
Embrace and enflame us
in your heart of fire.
Soften our hardness—transform us.
Give us the courage to accept
into our open hearts
the grace of your vision for us.
Bring life to our dryness—drench us.
May our lives be chalices of compassion
that satisfies those that thirst for justice.
Send us to proclaim a time of blessing
and welcome to those that are far off.
You who are over and within us,
who heals and sustains us,
anoint us to discover together
the passionate commitments and leaders
that will create the Congregation of the future.
Come, Holy Spirit, Come!
Make us new wine for the Church and the world!
+ Amen.
