CLOSING PRAYER:


Lord, make us instruments of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let us sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there us discord, union;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
Grant that we may not so much seek to be consoled as
to console
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in the giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born into eternal life.
Amen.
