Prayers of the faithful - Wednesday of the fifth week of Lent - 20 March 2024

Lord Jesus, you bring healing into our lives. 

Christ Jesus, you summon the sinner to repentance.

Lord Jesus, you call us out of darkness and into light.

Priest: Every day, the works of the Lord are made visible by our faith. As we place our trust in God, we now turn to him with our needs, the needs of our neighbor, and the needs of the Church:

1. For the Church, that the light we shine upon the world may spread the love of Christ to all God’s children, we pray to the Lord.

2. For all who live in the darkness of war, violence, and poverty, that they may find hope in the light of Christ, we pray to the Lord.

3. For those in our RCIA program who will be entering the Church on Easter weekend. That they may recognize the grace of God at work in their lives. We pray for our youth preparing for confirmation. We pray to the Lord.

4. That the new life we see in nature in the springtime may be reflected in the renewal of our mission in the world, we pray to the Lord.

5. For the repose of the souls of the faithful departed. For healing for our sick and shut-ins. We pray to the Lord.

6. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts, for our intentions spoken and unspoken, we pray to the Lord.

Priest: Lord of light and love, we pray that you may ever guide us on our way. We make our prayers through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
