That the youth of the world deepen in faith in God and compassion toward all, we pray.

Reading: Let us contrive to bring this Holy Spirit amongst us. We need the Spirit of God, we just must have the Holy Spirit move amongst us. He is the One to soften your hearts, enlighten your minds, to give power and strength to your will. We want strength and power, but that is of the Holy Spirit. Now let us put more unction in our prayer to the Spirit of God. The Church is just vibrant with a love and desire for the Spirit of God. Everything that delights the eye, that delights the senses. is of the Holy Spirit. (MCM, p.293 )
