Father, you created each one of us in your own image. / Yet yours is a world made glorious by its rich diversity. / This we sometimes misunderstand, sometimes fear. / Give us the patience to build on what unites us, to celebrate our differences and to learn from them. / Grant us the wisdom to recognise your Church, beyond the walls of a building, reaching out across all communities, countries and cultures. / Give us the courage to offer refuge to those in need, to challenge prejudice and seek justice for all. / Help us see that you created us in your image. / Neighbour or stranger, always our brother or sister. / Amen
