For we who live are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh. (2 Corinthians 4:11)

Let us pray: Almighty God, may you grant us wisdom and courage so that we may successfully fulfill our promise to Christ and that is, starting today, we shall follow his examples of humility, empathy, care, mercy and forgiveness. Amen.
