Litany for Liberty

Litany for Liberty

For use during the Fortnight for Freedom

United States Conference of Catholic Bishops

This prayer may be prayed in a group setting led by a leader of prayer, who begins the

litany with the introduction and the announcement of each invocation, or if it is prayed

individually, the individual prays the entire prayer.

INTRODUCTION

Christ the Lord has called us out of darkness into his marvelous light.

Let us turn to him in humble but fervent petition,

seeking the grace to root out from our hearts all trace of darkness,

and all that holds us back

from walking in the full freedom of the children of God.

As Christ is our great model for that inner freedom,

which enables us to do the right,

let us turn to him with confidence

that we, too, may follow him to the fullness of spiritual freedom.
