Lord God, by our Baptism you have called us to proclaim your Word, to bear Christ to one another and to the world. You have blessed us with the gift of Redeemer Radio. We are grateful. We trust that you will use this ministry of the airwaves to proclaim your Word and our Catholic faith to all of our brothers and sisters.
Consecrating our efforts to the love and prayers of the Mother of our Redeemer, we use the prayer of our Holy Father, Pope Benedict, to pray:
- Holy Mary, Mother of God,
- you have given the world its true light,
- Jesus, your Son---the Son of God.
- You abandoned yourself completely to God’s call
- and thus became a wellspring
- of the goodness which flows forth from Him.
- Show us Jesus.
- Lead us to Him.
- Teach us to know and love Him,
- so that we too can become capable of true love
- and be fountains of living water
- in the midst of a thirsting world.
We make this prayer through Christ, our Redeemer. Amen.
--by Fr. Jim Shafer, with a prayer from Pope Benedict’s encyclical, "God Is Love."
