God of mercy, You never cease searching
for those who have wandered from Your love.
Today, we pray for those who feel distant from the Church,
uncertain about their faith, or burdened by choices they regret.
Let them encounter Your welcoming presence through a kind word,
a listening heart, or an unexpected moment of grace.
Teach us not to judge those who struggle
but to accompany them with compassion.
Renew our own hearts, that we may rejoice whenever someone
discovers the freedom and joy of returning to You.
Amen.
