Almighty God and Father,
you sent Saint John the Baptist to the people of Israel
_to make them ready for Christ the Lord.

_Give us the grace of joy in the Spirit,__and guide the hearts of all the faithful__in the way of salvation and peace.__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. Amen.
