We present on our eucharistic table the petitions and needs of all the beings of the earth, so that He can drive us to create a new world.

* Today is the feast of the three kings, those wise men who searched for Jesus until they found him and gave him presents of what he needed.

MAKE US BE A PRESENT FOR OTHERS.

* For all of us, who go about distracted with everyday things and forget about seeing the beauty of the small things of life and of people,

MAKE US BE A PRESENT FOR OTHERS.

* Today we want to place ourselves so you make us like children, full of joyful anticipation and confident so that we give our love to others,

MAKE US BE A PRESENT FOR OTHERS,

* So that your church becomes what the world needs for company, enthusiasm for you, Lord, consolation, hope, health, justice and optimism for all humanity.

MAKE US BE A PRESENT FOR OTHERS,

* So that all of us, joined together around your table, can discover the present that everyone contains, as a unique irrepeatable being.

MAKE US BE A PRESENT FOR OTHERS.

Collect, Father, all our wishes for the beginning of the year which today, with a childlike and profound attitude, we present to you, so that you can help us make them become a reality.
