Lord Jesus - you bring us God’s love.
Christ Jesus - you call us to repentance.
Lord Jesus - you bring us new life.
Introduction: The Lord God is present in the midst of our assembly. Let us call to the Lord in our prayers.
1. For our Church and parish community. For our faithfulness to the covenant we have with God. We pray to the Lord.
2. For Pope Francis, Bishop Joseph Kopacz, and all our church leaders, lay and ordained; may they hear God’s voice call out to them as they serve the Church. We pray to the Lord.
3. For the leaders of nations, states, and cities; that they may help us to realize the holiness of every human person. We pray to the Lord.
4. For all who fight against racism, oppression, and social injustice. For peacemakers. We pray to the Lord.
5. For those from whom we are separated or alienated, for the forgotten or ignored. May we work to heal old wounds and strive towards healing and reconciliation. We pray to the Lord.
6. For the sick and shut-ins. For those who have died, that they will see the face of God. We pray to the Lord.
Priest: Lord God, Father of us all, hear the prayers we make to you for every member of the human family. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
