Lord Jesus - you bring us hope.
Christ Jesus - you bring us the Father’s love.
Lord Jesus - you bring us God’s word.
Priest: Let us turn to God our Father in confidence in our prayers.
1. For the Church and for all our Church leaders, that all of Christ’s faithful will commit themselves to bringing his light to the world.
2. For all those who serve us in the government, that they will always strive to protect the dignity of human life.
3. For the healing of the nations, that all people may learn to live in peace and endeavor to bring an end to war, violence, and terrorism.
4. For all who are starved of hope, especially the world’s poor and those who are struggling with the trials and tribulations of life, that our sufferings may be recognized and that we find healing, wholeness, and hope.
5. For our own parish community, that we may be always ready to hear God’s word, do God’s will and face God’s judgement.
6. For the sick and the homebound, that they may know the healing touch of God’s love.
7. For those who have died, that they may enjoy their eternal reward with Christ in heaven. We pray for our deceased loved ones and family members and those enrolled in our book of remembrance.
Priest: Heavenly Father, you know each one of us and all our needs. Forgive our failings, keep us in your peace and lead us in the way of salvation. We ask this through Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
