Prayer was offered by the Chaplain, Sister Michelle Gorman, RSM:
May we recognize in our lives the presence, power, and light of our soul.
May we realize that we are never alone,
That our soul in its brightness and belonging connects us intimately with the rhythm of the universe.
May we respect our own individuality and difference.
May we realize that the shape of our soul is unique,
That we have a special destiny here,
That behind the façade of our lives, there is something good, beautiful, and eternal happening.
May we learn to see ourselves with the same delight, pride, and expectation with which the Mysterious God sees us in every moment.—AMEN.
(“A Blessing of Solitude” by John O’Donohue.)
