St Alban, courageous witness to Christ,
Pray for us

that we may be bold in our faith,
merciful to others
and willing to stand for truth no matter the cost.

Teach us to see Christ in the lives we touch
and to love as he did
through our love-filled service to others,
particularly those in need.

Let us rejoice in the Spirit
who helps us grow in faith
as we search for truth our whole life long.

Spirit of God,
fill us with your power;
widen our vision to see fresh challenges;
open our minds to a fresh outlook;
open our hearts to the fullness of your grace, and
open our lives to your glory.
