The return of Christ will usher us and all of creation into full communion with God. At that eschatological moment, the redemption of all things is completed, and all recognize Jesus is Lord. This is our ultimate hope.

— OFG Rule of Life

  • I’m here Holy Spirit. Conform me to the image of the Son, who is the image of the Father.

    I’m here Holy Spirit. Endue me with power to do the works of Christ that the Father has given me to do.

  • Fear not, for Christ has overcome the world.

  • Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

  • Son of David, have mercy on me. Son of David, have mercy on them.

  • Return quickly, Lord Jesus.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an incorruptible and undefiled inheritance that doesn’t fade away, reserved in Heaven for you, who by the power of God are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. In this you greatly rejoice.

— 1 Peter 1:3-6
