Holy, beloved Father,
your Son Jesus taught us that
there is great rejoicing in heaven
whenever someone lost is found,
whenever someone excluded, rejected
or discarded is gathered into our “we”,
which thus becomes ever wider.

We ask you to grant the followers of Jesus,
and all people of good will,
the grace to do your will on earth.
Bless each act of welcome and
outreach that draws those in exile
into the 'we' of community and of the Church,
so that our earth may truly become
what you yourself created it to be:
the common home of all our
brothers and sisters. Amen.

– (Pope Francis, May 3, 2021)
