Prayers of the faithful - 1 September 2023 - Friday of the 21st week in Ordinary Time

Lord Jesus - You call us to be missionary in spirit. 

Christ Jesus - You bring us hope. 

Lord Jesus - You bring us your Good News. 


With hope and faith, let us bring our prayers to our heavenly Father: 


1. For Pope Francis: that God will help him lead the Church to greater service, love and unity. 

2.  We pray that all Christians may cooperate and collaborate with together to proclaim the Gospel and to work for peace and justice.  

3. For all who are called to bear prophetic witness, that their witness to the truth may touch hearts and be an opportunity for deeper conversion for all God’s people. 

4. For our elected officials: that the Holy Spirit will guide them in addressing issues of violence, injustice, and poverty, and to work more diligently for those who are oppressed or forgotten by society. 

5. For healing of families and communities: that those touched by violence, anger, division, or addictions may heal and reconcile and be brought to wholeness. 

6. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our heart:


We humbly present these prayers through your Son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
