St. John the Baptist, beloved patron of the IACB, pray that our minds and hearts may be open to hear and to follow the Word of God, who for our sake was made flesh and dwells amongst us still,

by the working of the Holy Spirit.

Our Lady of Lourdes, help us to grow in love and devotion to the sick and the needy,

particularly those most neglected. Amen.
