150th Anniversary Celebration Prayer
Creator God, you are the fountain of all wisdom

and the source of all love.
In your goodness, you have called men and women of faith
to make Christ the King Seminary a place to learn
and discover more fully the depths of your love.
We thank you for those who have sustained this ministry
through their work, prayers and gifts.
Through the intercession of St. Bonaventure and St. John Vianney,
we ask your continued blessings on the Seminary
as it meets the changing needs of an evolving Church,
and we pray that men and women continue
to answer your call to vocations for ordained and lay ministry.
By our learning and our searching,
may be always have the grace to know your presence among us.
We ask this through Christ the King
by the working of the Holy Spirit.
Amen
