God of Life,

as MAGiS pilgrims to World Youth Day,
we gather under the sign of the Southern Cross
and turn to you in prayer.
Give us generous hearts,
open to the graces with which you wish to bless us:
the grace of joyful companionship with one another and with Jesus;
the grace of deep spirituality,
'to grasp how wide and long,
how high and deep is the love of Christ';
the grace of loving service
in which you call us to give 'more' of ourselves.
We ask this in the name of Jesus the Lord.
Amen.
Our Lady of the Way, Pray for us.
Mary Aikenhead, Pray for us.
St Madeleine Sophie Barat, Pray for us.
Marie Madeleine d’Hoüet, Pray for us.
Mary Ward, Pray for us.
St Ignatius Loyola, Pray for us.
Based on Eph 3:14-21 (the vision of the MAGiS program); Annotation 5 of The Spiritual Exercises; and the three pillars of MAGiS.
