Lord Jesus - you call us to faith.
Christ Jesus - you are the resurrection.
Lord Jesus - you call us to Easter joy.
With Easter joy in our hearts, we bring our prayers to our heavenly Father:
1. For the Church: that we may bring the light of Christ into the dark corners of our society and a message of hope to all who are struggling.
2. For all the newly baptized throughout the world: that they may faithfully follow Jesus and keep the light of Christ burning in their lives.
3. For all the human family: that Christ’s victory over death may bring hope and healing to all who are burdened by poverty, disease, prejudice and fear.
4. For all who are confused or doubting their faith: that they may experience the Risen Lord and discover the truth through His love.
5. For vocations to religious life and the priesthood, to marriage and the single life and for those called to the diaconate: that they may be faithful to their call in life.
6. For all those suffering mentally, physically or spiritually.
7. For all parishioners and loved ones who have died: that God will meet them face to face on their journey to eternal life.
We present these prayers this morning thru your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
My friend mentioned to me your blog, so I thought I’d read it for myself. Very interesting insights, will be back for more!
