Icon of the Eucharist (www.adoremus.org/NewABart/EucharistLaFemina2.jpg)

Let us pray to God
who invites everyone into the Kindom.

Our Abba, you who lift up the lowly;
your Beloved Jesus came into our world
as the servant of all and he cherished the helpless.
With him, make us respect and appreciate
the weak, the defenseless and the humble,
and accept to be numbered among them.
Dispose us to help them and to seek their help.
For you have poured out your mercy on us too
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
