Dear Jesus,

Help us to remember that Immaculate Conception is our parish.

That it is composed of all types of people, all of which are children of God.

Its pews will be filled, if we help fill them.

It will do great work, if we work.

It will make generous gifts to many causes, if we are generous.

It will bring other people into its fellowship, if we bring them.

Immaculate Conception will be a Parish of loyalty, love, faith, and noble spirit, if we, who make it what it is, are filled with those qualities.

Therefore, with the help of God, we shall dedicate ourselves to the task of being all the things that we want our Parish to be.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Amen.
