24 April 2024 - Prayers of the faithful - Wednesday of the 4th week of Easter

Lord Jesus - you fill us with Easter joy - Lord have mercy. 

Christ Jesus - you accompany the people of God on their journey of faith - Christ have mercy. 

Lord Jesus - you bring us hope - Lord have mercy. 

Priest: Gathered around the altar of the Lord, we bring our supplications on behalf of all who are in need:

1. That we in the Church may find ways to both preach the word and serve our neighbor. 

2. For our elected leaders, that they may serve with wisdom, compassion and humility. 

3. For an end to violence and terrorism in our nation and throughout the world. 

4. For all those who are graduating high school and college, may the Lord give them joy and encouragement as they reach this milestone in life.  

5.  That we will come to see the Lord Jesus as the way, the truth, and the life. 

6. For the sick and shut-in, for the faithful departed, and for those prayers we hold in our hearts today. 

Priest: God of all, you sent your only Son to us as a sign of hope and faith. Help us always to keep his way firmly in our sights as we make these prayers to you in his name, Jesus Christ, our Risen Lord forever and ever.
