Gospel, Saint, prayer of May 16st

Today's Gospel
From the Gospel of Jesus Christ according to John 17,11b-19.
At that time, Jesus, raised his eyes to heaven, so he prayed:
«Holy Father, keep in your name those whom you have given me, so that they may be one, like us.
When I was with them, I kept in your name those you gave me and I kept them; none of them has been lost, except the son of perdition, for the fulfillment of Scripture.
But now I come to you and say these things while I am still in the world, so that they may have the fullness of my joy within themselves.
I gave them your word and the world hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
I am not asking you to take them out of the world, but to keep them from the evil one.
They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
Sanctify them in truth. Your word is truth.
As you sent me into the world, I also sent them into the world;
for them I consecrate myself, so that they too may be consecrated in the truth ».
