Jesus, you teach us how to love and care for one another.
In making friends with the Samaritan woman you teach us to make friends with people who are different than us, to see one another as brothers and sisters.
Open our eyes to see those who are excluded and reach out to them.
Open our hearts to love all people, especially those who are poor rejected and need a friend.
Help us to see that embracing our one another make our hearts bigger and help us to grow closer to you.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen

Let us Pray the Lord’s Prayer together,
Our Father who art in heaven…
Hail Mary …
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
