Lord Jesus - you call us to give thanks.
Christ Jesus - you call us to a life of service.
Lord Jesus - you call us to holiness.
Priest: Let us bring our prayers to God, the source of mercy and compassion.
1. For all Christians who are beginning their holy Lenten journey. For strength and courage on our Lenten journey.
2. For obedience to the will of God amongst the followers of Christ, even when God will challenges us and even when our journey is difficult and complicated.
3. For unity and collaboration amongst all Christians.
4. For those who hunger and thirst in a physical sense, and for those who hunger and thirst for justice and righteousness.
5. For people in need in the Diocese of Jackson, particularly the sick, those looking for work, those feeling lost in life, and those battling addictions.
6. For all who have gone before us in faith, for their entry into eternal life. For the souls in purgatory.
7. For the people of Ukraine in the midst of war, for safety, courage, and protection.
7. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today.
Priest: God of mercy and compassion, as we begin our Lenten journey, we humbly ask that you hear the prayers we make in faith, through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. Amen.
