Collect

Father of mercy,
who made Jean-Baptist Vianney outstanding
in his zeal and concern for your people:
may we, following his example,
care for our brothers and sisters
and bring them to know the love of Christ;
through the same Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.           [title page | August
