Sanctus Arnold Janssen!

Loving God,
In your infinite love, you have given us the gift of faith in Jesus Christ, your Son. We thank you for St. Arnold Janssen whom you called to bring the faith in the areas where the Gospel has not been preached. We praise you for the Missionary Congregations of St. Arnold – the Divine Word Missionaries, the Sisters Servants of the Holy Spirit, and Perpetual Adoration Sisters. Your Word and your Spirit inspired the pioneer Divine Word Missionaries and Holy Spirit Sisters of many nations to share the struggle for freedom from the darkness of sin and the night of unbelief through the light of Christ. We glorify you for the wonders you have worked through them in many nations.
We pray for all the priests, brothers and sisters of the three Missionary Congregations. Bless and empower them with your Spirit. Through the intercession of St. Arnold, bless our family members, so that we may come to realize and live our Christian vocation profoundly and give witness to Christ. We make this prayer through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
