21 January 2022 - prayers of the faithful - second week of ordinary time

Lord Jesus - you bring us the Father’s love. 

Christ Jesus - you proclaim the justice and peace of God’s kingdom. 

Lord Jesus - you bring us healing and strength.  

We now present our prayers to our heavenly Father: 

1. That our Church would be renewed with the Holy Spirit working within us as individuals and as a community, making us bold in our faith and dynamic witnesses of God’s love.

2. That the Gospel of life would motivate our words and our actions, helping us to reach out to the vulnerable in society, both born and unborn.  

3. As we celebrate Word of God Sunday this weekend, that we would grow in our love and embrace of God’s word in our daily lives. 

4. That we would take practical steps in striving toward Christian unity, working in collaboration with all our Christian brothers and sisters outside of the Catholic faith.  

5. For all who have been affected by the COVID-19 virus, for strength for our medical professionals and workers, for healing for the sick, and prayers for the faithful departed.  

6. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today. 

We make our prayers out of faith and obedience through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever.  AMEN.
