Lord Jesus - you call us to reconciliation.
Christ Jesus - you bring us hope.
Lord Jesus - you call us to conversion.
In faith and trust, we present our prayers to our heavenly Father:
1. For freedom from our resentments: that we may surrender our resentments to God who frees us from hurts and teaches us to love our neighbor.
2. For all who have left or become alienated from their community of faith: that God will touch their hearts and help us to reach out and welcome them into our faith community here at St Jude.
3. For healing within families: that God will heal the wounds of words and actions so that families may work together and support one another.
4. For our sick and shut-in: that God's renewing love will strengthen and comfort all who are facing surgery or who have been hospitalized or who are confined to their homes or the nursing home.
5. For Refugees: that God will guide them safely to find new homes and help them enrich their new communities with their gifts and talents.
6. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today.
With humble hearts, we present these prayers through your Son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
