Heavenly Father, we thank You for the gift of the Church,
where Your people gather to worship, receive the sacraments,
and grow in faith.
As we remember the dedication of the Lateran Basilica,
remind us that Your dwelling place is not limited to stone and mortar.
You desire to live within hearts made holy by grace.
Purify our intentions, strengthen our unity, and make our parishes
welcoming homes for all who seek You.
May our lives proclaim the Gospel
and become living temples of Your love.
Amen.
