Lord Jesus - you call us to new life.
Christ Jesus - you call us to be missionary in spirit.
Lord Jesus - you guide us to justice.
Presider: Confident in God’s love and mercy, we present now our prayers and petitions.
1. For our Church, may we continue to reach out to others in love, embracing the marginalized and all those in need.
2. For our own and government leaders throughout the world as they address the many pressing issues of our time, may they be open to receiving wisdom and understanding from God.
3. For parents, may God provide them with the wisdom and understanding they need to discern what is best for their children’s future.
4. For research scientists, that they find a vaccine or cure for Covid-19; for health care workers that they be protected from this viral infection; and, for us, that we each do our part to help contain the spread of the coronavirus.
5. For the faithful, may they single-heartedly and zealously seek the kingdom of heaven.
6. For the sick and shut-in, for the repose of the souls of the faithful departed, and for those prayers we hold in our hearts today.
Presider: Loving God, we know it is you who in all things works for good, please grant us the eyes of faith to see the many ways you graciously accomplish these works. We make our prayers through your Son Christ our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
