Lord Jesus - you are our savior and our redeemer.
Christ Jesus - you are the Lamb of God.
Lord Jesus - you are the beloved son of the Father.
Priest: With joyful hearts, let us present our prayers to our heavenly Father:
1. For the grace of sacrificial love: that God will help us to make sacrifices and to endure hardships in caring for our families and in bringing the Gospel message to others.
2. For all who are discouraged by the difficulties of life: that the compassionate love of God will renew their hearts and lead them through their struggles.
3. For all recovering from the hurricanes, that God will ease their suffering, give them strength, and help them to find the resources that they need to recover.
4. For civility in public discourse, that public figures and elected officials may respect the human dignity of each other and find ways to address the real issues facing our world and nation. We pray for our upcoming national election.
5. For healing for the sick and the shut-in. For the faithful departed, for their entry into eternal life.
6. For the prayers that we hold in the silence of our hearts.
Priest: Heavenly Father, with faith and hope, we present our prayers today through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. Amen.
