I really like this prayer from Word on Fire, Fr. Barron's ministry, a prayer for the new evangelization:
Lord Jesus Christ, You have given Your Chruch the mission to proclaim the Gospel to all the nations.
May our efforts to fulfill this mission be guided by the Holy Spirit so that we might be a leaven of new life, salt of the earth and a light of the world - worthy missionaries and faithful to You.
Make us valiant witnesses to the Faith of the Church, and inspire us to speak the truth with love.
Help us to communicate to others the joy that we have recieved.
Permit us to be united, but not closed; humble, but not fearful; simple, but not naive, thoughtful, but not overbearing; contemporary, but not superficial; respectful of others, but boldly Your disciples.
May we bear into the world the hope of God, Who is Christ the Lord, Who rose from the dead and lives and reigns with Father and Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever. Amen.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us!
St. Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church, pray for us!
St. Peter and St. Paul, pray for us!
St. Therese, Patroness of Missionairies, pray for us!
St. Thomas Aquinas, pray for us!
