Continuing the Work of
Jesus Christ on Earth

O’ God,
You raised up St. John the Baptist
to prepare a perfect people for Christ.
Fill Your people with the joy of possessing His grace,
and direct the minds of all the faithful
in the way of peace and salvation.
Grant that as St. John was martyred
for truth and justice,
so we may energetically profess
our Faith in You,
and lead others to the Way,
the Truth, and Eternal Life.

The Prayer of St. John the Baptist
