Lord Jesus - you bring us Easter Joy - Lord have mercy.
Christ Jesus - you raise us to new life - Christ have mercy.
Lord Jesus - you bring us hope - Lord have mercy.
PRIEST: Let us place our needs before God our Father, rejoicing because Christ has triumphed over death and entered into glory.
1. For the Holy Father, Pope Francis and all of our Church leaders, that they may continue to lead the Church in witnessing to the joyful truth of the Resurrection, let us pray to the Lord.
2. For all who have dedicated their lives to God, that they may be Christ’s witnesses in the world, let us pray to the Lord.
3. For the unemployed, for those struggling economically, for the hungry and the homeless, for those crying out for justice, for those battling addictions, that their needs be met, let us pray to the Lord.
4. For the family of God, gathered here in Easter joy, that we may bear witness to the risen Christ and reflect him in our lives, let us pray to the Lord. Response: Lord, hear our prayer.
5. For the sick and shut-in. For those afflicted with COVID-19. For healing. And for those who have died, that they may rise to eternal life in Christ, let us pray to the Lord.
PRIEST: Almighty Father, your beloved son has risen from the dead, as he promised us. In peace and joy we present our prayers to you, through the same risen Lord, who lives and reigns for ever and ever. Amen.
