L: Blessed are those who listen to God’s word.
A: And live by it day after day.
L: Mindful that God has consecrated us, let us renew our commitment to Him and our dedication to our mission on behalf of youth, let us ask Our Lady for the gift of fidelity.
A: Most holy and Immaculate Virgin,
Help of Christians, Mother of the Church,
foundress and support of our Congregation,
we place ourselves under your motherly protection,
and faithful to our Salesian vocation,
we promise to work always for the greater glory of God and for the salvation of souls.
With trust in your intercession,
we pray for the Church,
for our Congregation and the Salesian Family,
for the young, especially those most in need,
and for all people redeemed by Christ.
You were Don Bosco’s teacher;
show us how to imitate his virtues,
especially his union with God, his purity, humility and poverty,
his love for work and for temperance,
his kindness and his whole-hearted service of others,
his loyalty to the Pope and to the bishops of the Church.
Grant, O Mary Help of Christians,
that we may serve God with fidelity and generosity until death.
Help us to come at last
to the endless joy of life together
in our Father’s home in heaven. Amen.
