Lord Jesus - you are the living word of God - Lord have mercy.
Christ Jesus - you bring us hope and truth - Christ have mercy.
Lord Jesus - you bring us the Father’s love - Lord have mercy.
Priest: As we celebrate the Octave of Easter with great joy and hope, let us now bring our prayers to our heavenly Father:
1. For all who follow Christ today, that his love may be visible in their words and actions.
2. For those who seek Christ's truth in their lives, that the Holy Spirit may help find that truth in our Lord and Savior.
3. For all those children and youth preparing for the sacraments of first communion and confirmation, that they find hope and encouragement on their journey.
4. For all who are suffering or struggling in any way, and for all who need healing of body, mind or spirit: that the love of family, friends, and neighbors may remind them of God’s loving care.
5. For the repose of the souls of the faithful departed, for their entry into eternal life, and for the souls in purgatory.
6. For those who are recovering from the bad storms and tornados here in Mississippi and throughout the country.
6. For those prayers we hold in our hearts today.
Priest: Heavenly Father, we ask that you continue to lead and guide your people during the holy season of Easter. Hear our prayers that we make through your son Jesus Christ, our risen Lord forever and ever. Amen.
