The Lord Jesus built his holy people on the foundation of the apostles and prophets. In faith let us pray:
Lord, come to the aid of your people.
You once called Simon, the fisherman, to catch men,
— now summon new workers who will bring the message of salvation to all peoples.
Lord, come to the aid of your people.
You calmed the waves so that your followers would not be drowned,
— guard your Church, protect it from all dangers.
Lord, come to the aid of your people.
You gathered your scattered flock around Peter after the resurrection,
— good Shepherd, bring all your people together as one flock.
Lord, come to the aid of your people.
You sent Paul as apostle to preach the good news to the Gentiles,
— let the word of salvation be proclaimed to all mankind.
Lord, come to the aid of your people.
You gave the keys of your kingdom into the hands of your holy Church,
— open the gates of that kingdom to all who trusted in your mercy while on earth.
Lord, come to the aid of your people.
