“May God, who has called you to the service of others in his Church, give you great zeal for all, especially the afflicted and the poor.
“May He, who has entrusted you with preaching the Gospel of Christ, help you, as you live according to his word, to be its sincere and fervent witness.
“May He, who has appointed you a steward of his mysteries, make you an imitator of his Son, Jesus Christ, and a minister of unity and peace in the world.”
