The Return of the Prodigal
Son (Rembrandt)
Reconciled
Let us pray [for a greater faith
and love] Father of peace, we are joyful in your Word, Your Son Jesus Christ, who
reconciles us to you. Let us hasten toward Easter with the eagerness of faith and
love. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, one God, for ever and
ever.
Amen.

Teach Us
Let us pray [that by growing in love this Lenten season we may bring the peace of
Christ to our world] God our Father, Your Word, Jesus Christ, spoke peace to a sinful
world and brought mankind the gift of reconciliation by the suffering and death
he endured. Teach us, the people who bear his name, to follow the example he have
us: may our faith, hope, and charity turn hatred to love, conflict to peace, death
to eternal life. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
