Lord Jesus, you the Prince of Peace: Lord, have mercy.
Lord Jesus, you are the Son of God and Son of Mary: Christ, have mercy.
Lord Jesus, you are Word of God made flesh: Lord, have mercy.
Prayers of the faithful:
PRIEST: God graciously blesses us in his love and mercy. We now bring forward our needs to God with confidence:
1. That those who follow Christ may remain faithful throughout the challenging and difficult circumstances of their lives.
2. That God may grant wisdom to our governmental leaders in the decisions they have to make.
3. For peace in our communities that are torn apart by violence, terrorism, anger, or conflict.
4. That we may all be peacemakers who work for reconciliation, peace, and justice in our relationships.
5. That our Mother Mary, Our Lady of Fatima, may be an example to all of us in her patience, compassion, and love.
6. For all who have been affected by bad weather and natural disasters. We pray for safety for all travelers.
7. For the sick and the shut-in. For our dearly departed family members and loved ones, that perpetual light may shine on them.
8. For those prayers we hold in our hearts.
PRIEST: Gracious God, you bless your people with peace and justice. As we commemorate our Mother Mary, Our Lady of Fatima, we ask that you accept our prayers and give us your help, through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. Amen.
