The Pauline Offertory

God, to communicate your love to men and women, you sent your only Son Jesus Christ into the world and made him our Master, the Way and Truth and Life of humanity. Grant that the media of social communication: press, film, radio, television, music, and all audio-visuals may be used for your glory and the good of all.

We pray:

For all people, that the use of the media may become a stimulus to communion, peace, and brotherhood.

For those who work in the field of communication, that through the press, movies, radio, television, internet and all new means of communication, they might communicate everything that is good, beautiful and true.

For all of us, that we may receive with a critical sense the messages as they are transmitted to us, and that our lives may become a living communication of the love of Christ.

That all those who work within the framework of social communication may grow in holiness and wisdom and bear witness to an authentic Christian life.

We adore you, Lord, Creator of heaven and earth.
We thank you for having placed at the disposition of humanity such a wealth of good for the present life and eternal life.
"All these are yours; but you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God"
(1 Cor. 3:23). Amen.
