Invocation

[edit]
Francis of Assisi, the namesake of the college

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.

Let me sow love where there is hatred. Where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; there is hope where there is despair. Where there is darkness, there is light; there is joy where there is sadness.

O Divine Master, grant that I do not seek to be consoled as much as I seek to console; to be understood as much as I seek to understand; and to be loved as much as I seek to love. It is in giving that we receive. It is in pardoning that we are pardoned.

And it is in dying that we are borned to eternal life.
