Strategic Planning Prayer

Holy Spirit, we stand before you gathered together in your name  for a special purpose.
Renew the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux.
Bless our efforts to build up your kingdom among us,
so that in all things your kingdom may come and your will may be done.
Come to us, remain with us, and enter into our hearts.
Open our ears to hear your voice and our hearts to discern your will.
Teach us how to follow you so that with your help
we may be able to please you in all things.
May you alone be the source and grace of our strategic planning.
We ask this in the Immaculate Heart of Mary 
and through the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Amen.


Pray the Rosary with us!
We need your help.
God has already give us the blueprint for renewal – prayer!
