Priest: We unite our prayers today with St Ignatius of Antioch and with all the community of saints.
1. For all of our Church leaders, especially Joseph Kopacz our Bishop and Pope Francis, for wisdom and courage as they lead and guide our Church.
2. For a missionary spirit in all of us, that we may we see ourselves as missionaries who bring the Gospel message to our little corner of the world.
3. For a spirit of vision for our communities and our nation, that our governmental leaders have a vision of leading us forward, in all are seen as integral parts of the community.
4. For a spirit of action, that we may all practice peace and justice and a respect for life and God’s creation in our words and our actions.
5. For a spirit of truth, that we may all look into our hearts and see the potential and vocation God has for us.
6. For a spirit of healing for the sick and shut-in of our parish, for their care-givers and families.
