Lord Jesus - you are the word of God.
Christ Jesus - you bring us the love of the Father.
Lord Jesus - you call us to a life of discipleship.
With humble hearts, we present our prayers to our heavenly Father on this fifth week of the Easter season :
1. For all the parishes of the Diocese of Jackson: that God will strengthen the spirits of our parishioners, help them form supportive relationships, and guide them in their ministries and services.
2. For all couples preparing for marriage: that they may appreciate the gift that they are to one another and form a partnership of life for the good of each other.
3. For peace: that God will turn minds and hearts from violence, open new ways for dialogue about wounds and grievances, and help all who are burdened with anger to find life and hope.
4. For all who have experienced abuse: that God will heal them, give them new courage, and renew their vision for a future filled with God’s promises.
5. For all of our students: that they may feel God’s presence with them during the upcoming months of summer vacation.
6. For healing for the sick and shut-in, and may the Lord welcome into eternal life the faithful departed.
7. For the prayers we hold in our hearts.
We present our prayers through the risen Christ, our Lord forever and ever.
