Week of Prayer for Christian Unity 2025ಮಾದರಿ

The Holy Spirit, the giver of life and joy
Patristic Reading
From the Syriac tradition
It is not correct to say that the Spirit departs when we sin to return when we are converted ... What good is it for me if he dwells in me after I have become righteous? If at the time of the fall he does not dwell in me, does not give me a hand, and does not raise me up, how will I feel his help? What physician, when he sees a sick person who falls sick, leaves and abandons him, to come to him when he becomes healthy? Is it not more useful that the physician be with the sick person at the time of his illness?
- Philoxenus of Mabbug [c. 440-523], On the Inhabitation of the Holy Spirit
For reflection:
1.God’s Spirit renews the face of the earth every day, calling us to cooperation.
2.What are the sources of joy in your life and how are they related to the Holy Spirit?
3.Where do we see the Holy Spirit at work, overcoming our divisions and drawing us into deeper unity, and how can we join in this work?
Prayer
Let us pray:
God our Father,
you have revealed to us the wondrous mystery of your life,
sending your Son into the world
and sharing with us your Spirit of holiness and joy.
Let us rejoice in the Spirit,
who renews the face of the earth and draws us towards unity.
We confess our faith in you,
the One God, three times Holy:
Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Blessed are you, now and for ever and ever. AMEN.
About this Plan

Prayers and reflections for the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity in 2025 are prepared by the brothers and sisters of the monastic community of Bose in northern Italy. This year marks the 1,700th anniversary of the first Christian Ecumenical Council, held in Nicaea, near Constantinople in 325 AD. The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity 2025 offers an invitation to draw on this shared heritage and to enter more deeply into the faith that unites all Christians. Resources are jointly published by the Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity and the World Council of Churches.
