If we have died with him
we shall also live with him
Beloved:
Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, a descendant of David:
such is my Gospel, for which I am suffering,
even to the point of chains, like a criminal.
But the word of God is not chained.
Therefore, I bear with everything for the sake of those who are chosen,
so that they too may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus,
together with eternal glory.
This saying is trustworthy:
If we have died with him
we shall also live with him;
if we persevere
we shall also reign with him.
But if we deny him
he will deny us.
If we are unfaithful
he remains faithful,
for he cannot deny himself.
1. "I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears" (Psalm 34:4).
2. "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:6-7).
3. "Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you" (1 Peter 5:6-7)
4. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
5. The LORD is my light and my salvation-- whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life-- of whom shall I be afraid?
6. "Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Saviour and my God" (Psalm 42:5).
7. "I can do everything through him who gives me strength" (Philippians 4:13).
My song is of mercy and justice; I sing to you, O LORD.
I will walk in the way of perfection. O when, LORD, will you come?
I will walk with blameless heart within my house;
I will not set before my eyes whatever is base.
Those who secretly slander their neighbours I will bring to silence.
Those of proud look and haughty heart I will never endure.
No one who practises deceit shall live within my house.
No one who utters lies shall stand before my eyes.
Glory be

CLOSING PRAYER
We pray in solidarity with all our Holy Brothers, our Lasallian Saints and St John Baptist De La Salle, our Founder, that on the occasion of his canonisation, Brother Solomon will intercede for us especially in times of challenge and difficulty. May his courage and sacrifice be an inspiration for all Lasallians as we seek to touch hearts in a world of great change, disruption and uncertainty.
May his life be an inspiration for all young men who feel called to follow God's invitation to be his servants in a world desperate for word and action, that respects the dignity and needs of all people of good will.
We make this prayer in the name of Jesus and all who have faithfully followed him to the cross. Amen.
