Holy Father,

As residents of this world, we desire wealth that we believe

brings comfort and security. But such riches are fleeting.

We pray for an increase in our spiritual wealth;

that we would be filled with the gifts of the spirit,

and that we would put these gifts to good use.

May we serve, give, and teach.

May we be given wisdom and knowledge.

May we prophesy and heal.

And all this not by our own power,

but by the power of Your Holy Spirit and in the name

of our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ.

Amen.
