OCTAVE OF THE EPIPHANY

Pallottine Prayer For the Vigil Of Epiphany
 
Lord, our God, we praise you for sending us your Son as Saviour of the world. We adore you because you manifested his glory to all peoples and nations. Fill your Church here on earth with the spirit of faith and adoration. Strengthen our conviction that even today you are close to your people in your Son, and reign as Lord over all.
 
All the kings of the earth will adore him. Alleluia!  All the peoples will serve him. Alleluia!
 
Father of light, unchanging God, today you revealed your Word made Flesh to the nations by the guidance of a star. Your light is strong, your love is near; draw us beyond the limits which this world imposes, to the life where your Spirit makes all life complete. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen
 
 

Epiphany – “the first manifestation our Lord Jesus Christ made of himself to the Gentiles, the first proclamation of the Catholic faith”
