1 *Come Holy Spirit!

2 Come Holy Spirit! Introduction: Holy Spirit, we come to You to implore a deeper awareness of the Seven-Fold Gifts that You gave us when You anointed us at Baptism, at our Confirmation and in our commitment as Holy Spirit Missionary Sisters. For abundance of life in the caring for the Body of Christ, we implore the riches of the Gift of Piety the Gift of Reverence the Gift of Counsel the Gift of Fortitude the Gift of Wisdom the Gift of Knowledge the Gift of Understanding! With these Gifts in mind we sing! Singing of the Veni Creator:

3 Insightful Praying: Ant: Spirit of the Gift of Piety, You deepen Reverence for God and You mellow over-strictness with self and with others. 1. Spirit of Honor, Your move creation to perceive everyone in God: 2. To perceive the Divine indwelling in everything that exists! 1. Spirit of Honor, Your move humanity to respect tradition and creativity: 2. To reverence God in me, God in them, God in all! 1. We are companions in the journey 2. rather than in competition! 1. Glory to You for the Gifts of Piety and Reverence! 2. Now and forever! Amen! Ant: Spirit of the Gift of Piety, You deepen Reverence for God and You mellow over-strictness with self and with others. Prayer: Deepen in us the integrity and the respect to need each other and to need each of the Gifts that You provide!

4 v Ant: Spirit of the Gift of Counsel, Yours arefonly plans that are going to work! Take over our lives for we are only participants in your mission. 1. Spirit of the Known and Unknown, You teach us what to do: 2. Your counsel is always av.ail.able! 1. You embrace each of us: 2. You embrace everything in our lives and all reality! 1. Spirit of the Known and Unknown, in Your mission: 2. Teach us how to adjust! 1. Glory to You for the Gift of Counsel! 2. Now and forever!

6 A Reading: For those participating in the mission of God, the Gift of Wisdom provides God's view of events, God's view of situations, God's view of things; the Divine perspective on reality. Wisdom provides a keen perception of the Divine Presence at work, even in very tragic and painful circumstances. Because God is not aloof (but rather) is at work in all, peace permeates minds and hearts. The revelation of God's incomprehensible nature instills faith, trust and assurance in God's transforming activity and reign in the Kin-dam! I A Short Pause: Canticle of God the Holy Spirit: Ant: Today, in the twilight of Your Gift of Knowledge we experience Your person of steadfast good ness! Blessed be God the Holy Spirit for You visit us with the unconditional Knowledge, the experience of Your infinite goodness. As You gave of Yourself to Your people from of old so today You give of Yourself.

7 Because only You can satisfy our hunger and our thirst, You fulfill in us the mercy promised to our ancestors, remembering Your covenant. We long for happiness and You come to encourage us, not to condemn! And so we turn to Your Knowledge, the experience of Your infinite ways of goodness, that prepares the ways of peace! Glory to You Source of all Gifts. As it was in the beginning, so now are Your Seven-Fold Gifts. Ant: Today, in the twilight of Your Gift of Knowledge we experience Your person of steadfast goodness! I The Lord's Prayer: Acknowledging the Gift of Understanding, the depth of God's infinite care, we pray: Our Father...

8 Final Prayer: God Holy Spirit, In the awareness of Your favor in giving us Your Seven-Fold Gifts. we experience Your boundless Triune Presence.! Enable us to tap the riches of these Gifts in favor of the growth of the Body of Christ and the fulfillment of Your Kin-dom, the new earth and the new heaven. This we ask through Your Blessed Trinity! Amen! Amen! Final Blessing: May the Holy Triune God continue to bless us in God's mission with the presence of the Holy Spirit, protecting us with Its Seven-Fold Gifts and leading to life everlasting! Amen!
