A Collect for John XXIII (Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli)Bishop, 1963 GOD OF ALL TRUTH AND PEACE, who raised up thy Bishop John to be servant of the servants of God and bestowed on him wisdom to call for the work of renewing thy church: Grant that, following his example, we may reach out to other Christians in the love of thy Son, and labor throughout the nations of the world to kindle the desire for justice and peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with thee and the Holy Spirit, One God, Now and Forever, Indeed. AMEN
