CUF Prayer

Prayer of Catholics United for the Faith

O God our Father, who sent Your only-begotten Son to suffer and to give His life for the life of His Church, rule, protect, and nourish her continually, we beseech You.

Teach us of Catholics United for the Faith to direct our zeal first of all to the renewal of our own hearts.

Then, if it be Your holy will to allow us to be in any way your instruments in the wider renewal of Your Church, give us the grace to know what services, small or great, You ask of us, and let the Holy Spirit teach us to perform them in obedience, patience, and charity, leaving entirely to You what fruits they may bear.

We ask this through the same Jesus Christ Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You in the unity of that Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.

—H. Lyman Stebbins
Founder, Catholics United for the Faith

From Our Founder

Genuine renewal is what CUF is ultimately seeking to further. And genuine renewal is, as Pope Paul has stressed again and again, an inner, personal, moral, and religious renewal; because there can be no genuine renewal in the Church except by the individual response of her members to the universal vocation to holiness. Many of our chapters have begun primarily as groups who come together to deepen their spiritual life and their knowledge of the Church-especially of the documents of Vatican II. It is astonishing how different they are from that cloudy �spirit of Vatican II� which is used so powerfully to undermine the Church.
