The Faith of St Francis Xavier Enkindles Missionary Zeal

I say to you, many will come from the east and the west,
and will recline with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob

Let us pray.
O God, who through the preaching of Saint Francis Xavier
won many peoples to yourself,
grant that the hearts of the faithful
may burn with the same zeal for the faith
and that Holy Church may everywhere rejoice
in an abundance of offspring.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
