Prayers of the Faithful - Easter season - 15 April 2021

Lord Jesus - you are the resurrection

Christ Jesus - you bring us new life

Lord Jesus - you bring us hope.

Priest: We present our prayers to our heavenly Father: 

1. We pray for Francis our Pope, the communion of Bishops, and all the clergy, for their fidelity to the truth of the Gospel revealed in the mercy of Christ. 

2. We pray for all Christians, that we may embrace the corporal and spiritual works of mercy we are called to in our Baptism. 

3. We pray for all people of good will. That the entire human family may recognize our common bond to work for justice and the good of all peoples. 

4. We pray for all victims of injustice. That they may learn the freedom of mercy and find healing. 

5. We pray for all those enslaved by their past sins or decisions. That the wounds of Christ may encourage them to seek his surpassing love for them. 

6. We pray for the sick, the suffering, and the dying. That they may receive healing and encounter the mystery of their dignity as God's children. 

7. For those prayers we hold in our hearts.

Heavenly Father, we present these prayers through your son Jesus Christ our Lord forever and ever.  AMEN.
