Collect
O God, who are rich in mercy
and who willed that the Saint John Paul II
should preside as Pope over your universal Church,
grant, we pray, that instructed by his teaching,
we may open our hearts to the saving grace of Christ,
the sole Redeemer of mankind.
Who lives and reigns.
Prayer over offerings
Accept this sacrifice from your people,we pray, O Lord,
and make what is offered for your glory,
in honor of Saint John Paul II,
a means to our eternal salvation.
Through Christ our Lord.
Prayer after Communion
May the Sacraments we have received, O Lord our God,
stir up in us that fire of charity
with which Saint John Paul II burned ardently
as he have himself unceasingly for your Church.
Through Christ our Lord.
