PRAYER:

Almighty Father,

through the example of John of Kanty

may we grow in the wisdom of the saints.

As we show understanding and kindness to others,

may we receive your forgiveness.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,

who lives and reigns with you

in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

God, for ever and ever.

Amen.
