Dear Lord, we give you thanks for the 30 years that you have guided, blessed, and used LCI to bring the hope, truth, and love of Christ to the East. We thank you for every benefactor, student, teacher, staff, and supporter of LCI who you designed to participate in the beautiful and meaningful witness and mission of rebuilding your Church. O God, you are eternally loving and faithful and worthy of our constant devotion. Please accompany LCI with your wisdom and zeal as it enters a new chapter. Place in all our hearts a strong desire to grow closer to you and joyfully share your light with all those around us. And with the help of Our Blessed Mother, may LCI continue to serve you faithfully and wholeheartedly. All glory be to you forever.

Amen.
