Beatification

Lord, our Father,
we thank you:through your servant Leo Dehon
you have enriched the Churchwith a new religious family. 
May the beatification of your servant be to the praise
of your glory. 
Following his example,
make us prophets and ministers
of reconciliation in the Heart of your Son. 
May worthy disciples follow in his footstepsand
may they bring the joy of your Gospel
to the whole world.  
Heavenly Father,
united to Jesus Christ our Lord
and sanctified in the grace of the Holy Spirit,
may our life be an offering that is pleasing
to you for the salvation of the world.
Amen
