Lord Jesus - you are the beloved son of the Father.
Christ Jesus - you are our savior and redeemer.
Lord Jesus - you call us to love and compassion.
Prayers of the faithful:
Priest - As disciples on our journey of faith, we present our prayers and concerns to our loving and merciful Father:
1. For our Holy Father Pope Francis, for our Bishops and for all Church leaders, that they we lead the people in proclaiming the Good News of the Gospel. We pray to the Lord.
2. For our political and governmental leaders, that they will help us guard the dignity of all human life, especially the unborn and the most vulnerable. We pray to the Lord.
3. For all who are traveling, that the Lord will bless their travels and their time of rest and leisure and keep them safe. We pray to the Lord.
4. That we the local Church may be a place of welcome and spiritual renewal. We pray to the Lord.
5. For all who keep us safe in society: for first responders, for the men and women in the military, and for our medical professionals. In gratitude for their service and their sacrifices. We pray to the Lord.
6. For the repose of the souls of the faithful departed, for their entry into eternal life. For the souls in the process of purification in purgatory. We pray to the Lord.
7. For healing for us in body, mind, and spirit. We pray to the Lord.
8. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts. We pray to the Lord.
Priest - As we ask you to send us the presence of the Holy Spirit to help heal our world, we present our prayers through your Son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
