prayers of the faithful - Thursday of the 7th week of Easter - 25 May 2023

Lord Jesus - you are the spirit of truth - Lord have mercy.

Lord Jesus - you care for the hungry and the lonely - Christ have mercy.

Lord Jesus - you bring us justice and peace - Lord have mercy.

PRIEST: In the midst of the reality of our lives, let us raise our minds and hearts in prayer to God during this last week of the Easter season:  

1. That our Church and its leaders help us to go out and make disciples of all nations.

2. That Christ’s spirit of truth, goodness, and love guide all of our governmental leaders, bringing peace to the people, and to care for the weak, the sick, the hungry and the homeless.  

3. For all those who have committed their lives to be missionaries and to bring the word of God to others.

4. For all involved in the world of communications and media. We pray that their work may serve the cause of truth and justice and bring real benefits to all.

5. We pray for the sick, for those recovering from natural disasters, and those who need Christ’s healing presence in their lives in body, mind, or spirit. 

6. We remember in the silence of our hearts our own personal intentions and the intentions of those who have asked for our prayers.

PRIEST:  Father, may your love and compassion be constantly with us on our journey.  We make our prayers through hour son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. Amen.
