O loving and generous God, source of all life, holiness and goodness,
we thank you for the many gifts you give us throughout our lifelong journey of faith.
With faith in our future, we commit ourselves to the support of Catholic Education and our own Lifelong Faith Formation.
With hope in the here and now, we ask you to nourish us in your Spirit so that we may be faithful stewards of your gifts.
With love, may the sacrifice of our joyful giving be an outward sign of the true treasure we hold in Jesus. O faithful God, keep us always mindful of the good that can happen
when we allow you to work through us as one family united in faith.
We entrust our prayer through the intercession of Mary, the Immaculate Virgin Mother of God, and St. John the Evangelist, patron of our archdiocese,
as we pray through Jesus Christ who is the same yesterday, today and forever. Amen.
