O Father of Mercy and Divine Architect of Creation, thankful for Your abundant blessings and inspired by Your Son’s counsel to ask anything of You in His Name, we humbly seek Your help in building a new parish church that will be a fitting temple for Your praise and glory. May it be a house of prayer; a refuge for the weary; a field hospital of penitence and forgiveness; a school of faith and charity; and a worthy sanctuary for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and Supper of the Lamb.
O Heavenly Father, bless us with generous hearts and ready hands, that by our humble sacrifice of time, talent and treasure, we may offer loving service to Our King. May we soon rejoice in dedicating our new church to the praise and honour of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. We ask this through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.
O Mary Immaculate, dearest Mother of the Savior and Mother of the Church, we ask you to raise our petitions to your Son. Together with Saint Joseph, your most chaste spouse, guide and unite us in our efforts, that we may be consumed with zeal for the house of the Lord. Amen.
