Now that the Lord has tested him, as "gold in the crucible", and has accepted him "as a sacrificial burnt offering", we can truly say that "his hope was full of immortality" (cf Wis 3:4-5). It was full of Christ, the life and resurrection of all who trust in Him. (John Paul II)
Father of Love,
You called Francis Xavier Nguyen Van Thuan to serve you and to shepherd your people in the spirit of truth and love on the journey of Hope to heavenly home.
On the occasion of the 5th anniversary of the passing of the beloved Cardinal Francis Xavier, we pray for the blessings of the Holy Spirit and of our Holy Mother - Lady of La Vang - upon the process of his beatification.
May his virtues and the faithful witness to the Gospel help bring forth a deeper renewal of our Christian lives and proclaim the glory of God in the life of our brothers and sisters. We ask all this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
