OUR PRAYER
At Missio Scotland, we recognise that our first duty as missionaries is to share the Gospel through prayer. Mission cannot be understood without acknowledging our relationship with the Lord.
As Pope Francis reminded us, the Church is not simply another organisation. What sets us apart is our closeness to Christ—a closeness strengthened and sustained by prayer.
We pray daily for our work, for our many supporters and sponsors, for families and friends, and for the intentions people share with us in their letters. Above all, we pray for the missions we are privileged to support.
We invite you to join us in prayer. Please take a moment to reflect with one of the prayers below.
We praise you, merciful Father, for sending your Son into the world to free us from sin and enrich us with the gifts of the Holy Spirit. To continue His mission He sent His apostles, the bearers of his love, to proclaim the Gospel to all peoples and offer believers new life through Baptism and the Eucharist.
Look kindly, Lord, on the men who train for the priesthood, especially in the mission churches. Inspire them with perseverance and courage so that they may reach their goal of ordination and continue the work of the apostles in today’s world.
We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord.
AMENWe adore you, Jesus our Shepherd and Saviour. And we praise and thank you for your living among us. We ask you to walk beside your missionaries as they seek to proclaim your Gospel. Cherish, guide, and strengthen them; help them to be patient when they meet frustrations, and encourage them when they are disappointed. Lead them, we beseech you, along the path you desire for them. For you live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit for ever.
AMEN

Give us strength, courage, perseverance and hope, and fill our hearts and minds with the conviction that you are present with us.
