PRAYERS OF THE FAITHFUL- 12 December 2023 - Feast of our Lady of Guadalupe

Lord Jesus - You were born of the Virgin Mary

Christ Jesus - You are the Prince of Peace. 

Lord Jesus - You are our savior and our redeemer.  

Priest: As we celebrate our Lady of Guadalupe today, we present our prayers to our Heavenly Father through the intercession of the Blessed Mother: 

1. That the Church, sustained by the prayers of the Blessed Virgin Mary, may be open and responsive to God’s will. 

2. That aided by the prayers of Mary, Our Lady of Guadalupe, hatred, violence, and cruelty in the world will come to an end.

3. That Mary, untouched by the stain of sin, may be an example and inspiration for all, that we might aspire for purity in our bodies, minds and hearts. 

4. For our brothers and sisters who have consecrated themselves to Jesus through Mary, that trusting in her prayers and example, they will more firmly renounce the works of Satan and resolve to follow Jesus more closely. 

5. That all of our loved ones who have died, may find their home in heaven with Our Lady and the saints. 

6. That through the prayers of our community, and those we hold within our hearts, we may be ready to respond to God’s will as Mary did. 

7. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts. 

Priest: God of salvation, you reveal your steadfast love in Our Lady of Guadalupe, the Mother of your Son. We ask that you never grow weary of reaching out to us to overcome the ways we stray from your plan for us. We ask this through Christ our Lord forever and ever. Amen.
