Lord Jesus - you are the son of God.
Christ Jesus - you are the light of the world.
Lord Jesus - you are our Savior.
Priest: In the midst of our Advent journey, we present our prayers to the heavenly Father:
1. That we in the Church may wholeheartedly live out our faith traditions and remain open to the mystery of God's unconventional work in our lives and in the world around us.
2. That, like Mary and Joseph, we may enter into the mystery of God’s loving actions and be co-operative with the work of God even when we do not understand how to proceed.
3. That like Mary, we may perceive the invitation of God in the strange and sometimes unreasonable situations into which God calls us.
4. That through the mystery of Jesus becoming human, we may open ourselves to a fuller sharing in the divine life.
5. For healing for the sick and the afflicted. For wholeness for those struggling with addictions, anxiety, and mental health issues.
6. For missionaries and the men and women in the military who are separated from their families during the holiday season.
7. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today.
Priest: In this time of waiting and expectation, we present these prayer through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
