PRAYER

Closing Prayer God of the Journey, You are our Shepherd and guide. Pour out Your blessing upon us today as we prepare to work with our young people through Days in the Diocese and Pilgrimage to Sydney. Help us to follow Jesus’ example of leadership and discipleship as we lead the young people of our communities on a journey of faith, learning, hospitality and unity. We ask this through Christ Our Lord, Amen.
