Lord Jesus - you call us to a life of discipleship - Lord have mercy.
Christ Jesus - you call us to seek you in the midst of our reality - Christ have mercy.
Lord Jesus - you are the resurrection - Lord have mercy.
Priest: Our joy is in Christ’s rising from the dead. In our Easter joy, let as present our prayers to God the Father:
1. That Pope Francis, Bishop Kopacz, and all our church leaders inspire the members of the body of Christ to deeper reverence and prayer on their journey of faith.
2. That pastors may lead and serve their flock entrusted to their care with humility and wisdom.
3. That all governmental leaders may reach out to their people in hope and unity.
4. For all those who are sick and need healing in their lives.
5. For our medical professionals, first responders, the men and women in the military, and those on the front lines, for all who keep us safe.
6. For the prophets whom God has sent to us in our midst, that we may let their message enter our hearts.
6. For the faithful departed, for their entry into eternal life.
7. For those prayers we hold in our hearts today.
Priest: Father, you know the many needs of your people. Hear and answer the prayers that we make through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
