Penitential Rite:
Lord Jesus - you bring us new freedom - Lord have mercy.
Christ Jesus - you call us to renewal and conversion - Christ have mercy.
Lord Jesus - you give us hope - Lord have mercy.
Prayers of the faithful:
Priest: As we continue our journey during Lent, let us ask the Father to lead us through the dark moments in life as we present our prayers to our loving Father.
1. For the holy Church, that she may be defended from the snares of her enemies through the Holy Spirit. May she proclaim the Good News of Christ’s Gospel to all.
2. For all the peoples of the world, that they may be gathered into the Father’s kingdom through the prayers and sacrifices of Christians in every nation.
3. For the sick and shut-in, for healing for the sick and for the help they need. For the dying, that they may pass peacefully and confidently through the gates of death to meet him who is the resurrection.
4. For those who mourn, that Christ may console them in their grief.
5. For those who have been laid off for work or who have lost their job, for those who are looking for a new work, for encouragement and hope.
6. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today.
Priest: Father, hear the prayers of your Church. Bring to new life the people who trust in your promises. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
