Prayer for the Chapter

To You, Most Holy Trinity
we entrust the 46th General Chapter
of the Brothers of the Christian Schools.

We ask you, Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
who guide all things in our lives as Brothers and Partners,
to grant us
joy in thanksgiving,
boldness in truth,
and strength in decisions.

Despite our fragility,
our hearts are filled with reasons to hope,
because of our desire to commit the Institute
to following new paths
to transform lives.

With your grace,
we will have the strength and courage
to move to the peripheries
and release our creative energies.

Together, as Brothers and Partners
committed to the Lasallian mission,
we want to work in the spirit of the gospel
to change our way of viewing the world,
to take care of our common home.
And to become true missionary disciples.

We ask Our Lady of the Star,
Saint John Baptist de La Salle,
all our Lasallian saints and holy Brothers
to intercede for us.

Amen.
