In union, O Lord, with your faithful people at every altar of your Church, where the Holy Eucharist is now being celebrated, I desire to offer to you praise and thanksgiving.
I remember your death, Lord Christ; I proclaim your resurrection; I await your coming in glory.
Since I cannot receive you today in the Sacrament of Your Body and Blood, I ask you to come spiritually into my heart. Cleanse and strenghten me with your grace, Lord Jesus, and let me never be separated from you.
May I live in you and you in me in this life and in the life to come. Amen
Greetings!
Thank you for joining the mailing list for Seek the City to Come!
For the past year, the Seek the City Team has been blessed with the opportunity to sit down and fellowship at the table with so many pastors, parish leaders and parishioners at the regional gatherings held last fall, and especially during the many fruitful Parish Visits all across the city and nearby surrounding counties. It has been an inspirational and prayerful journey in discovering and learning the essence and fabric of what makes each one of our parish communities so dynamic and unique; and an even greater blessing to engage so many passionate and faith-filled Catholics with the courage, heart and commitment to lean in authentically and transparently as creative thought-leaders, with endless ideas and perspectives on how we reimagine our Church in the City.
Please register for the Seek the City - Call to Prayer on June 27th at Cathedral of Mary Our Queen from 6:30 – 8:30 pm. This OPEN invitation to gather in unity as Catholics will be a joyful and welcoming time to celebrate a year of LISTENING; reflecting on Faith, Fellowship and Feedback from the many voices of our parish communities in and around Baltimore.
