2024 CFCUSA Western Conference Prayer

Our Father in heaven, we come before you with hearts full of gratitude. We thank you for your endless love and your infinite wisdom. We are grateful for the blessings you have bestowed upon us, both seen and unseen. 

We thank you for every individual who has contributed their time, energy, and resources to make this event possible. We are grateful for the diversity of ideas, the spirit of generosity, and the shared commitment to learning that brings us together today.

As we embark on this journey, we ask for your guidance, wisdom, knowledge and inspiration. May our discussions be fruitful, our understanding deepened, and our perspectives broadened. Help us to listen with open minds, speak with kindness, and act with integrity.

We pray for success in our endeavors. May our plans align with your will and our actions reflect your love. Grant us the courage to face challenges, the perseverance to keep going, and the grace to accept the outcomes.

In moments of doubt, remind us of our purpose. In times of success, keep us humble. In times of uncertainty, provide us with clarity. In times of difficulties, remind us of your promise not to forsake us. In all things, help us to remember that we are stewards of your creation, called to serve one another in love and respect.

We commit this conference and all our plans to you, trusting in your unfailing love and boundless mercy. May your will be done in all things, and may your wisdom illuminate our paths.

In your mighty name, through the intercession of Mama Mary & St. Joseph, together with the Holy Spirit, we pray. Amen!
