CHALICE EVENA PRAYER

Sign of the Cross

Praise the Lord my soul, I will praise the Lord all my life.
I thank you Lord, for You are all good, Your love endures forever.
You hear my voice, and turn an ear on the day I call.
I ask you Lord to bless today
The one for whom I pray.

Our Father...Hail Mary (3 times)...Glory Be

Today, O God, I shall not be petty,
but large in thought, in word, and in deed;
without fault finding or self-seeking.
Today, I shall put away all pretense
and meet others face to face
without self-pity or prejudice.
I will not be hasty in judgment,
And always be generous,
taking time in all things to grow calm, serene, and gentle.
I shall put into action my better impulses and be straightforward and unafraid.
And, O Lord God, I will not forget to be kind.
Amen

Almighty God, I give thanks for all that I have and all that I am. Most of all, I give thanks for the great gift of Your Son, Jesus. I pray that through a personal relationship with the Risen Christ, my heart will be open to continued conversion in my life.

I pray that I may be a good steward: that I will follow faithfully, serve joyfully, give generously, live responsibly, and possess sensibly.

In gratitude for the abundant gifts You have so graciously given to me, I return to You the first fruits of these gifts, through acts of service and by generously sharing all that You have entrusted to me.

Heavenly Father, by Your Holy Spirit, help me to be a gift to others, in Your name. Amen
