Tender God,
cultivate the paschal mystery in us,
that those who flourish by the waters of sacred baptism
may be sheltered by your protection,
bear much fruit,
and reap the joy of eternal life;
through Jesus Christ,
who is alive with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.

God of transcendence,
as an example of humility for the human race,
you sent our saviour to become incarnate
and to submit to the cross;
grant us the grace to learn from this patient suffering
and so to share in the resurrection;
through Jesus Christ,
who is alive with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.
