Prayers of the faithful - 25th week in ordinary time - 25 September 2020

 Lord Jesus, you bring healing to us and you forgive us our sins: Christ, have mercy.

Christ Jesus, you bring us the Father's love: Christ have mercy. 

Lord Jesus, you came that we might have life in its fullness: Lord, heave mercy.

Prayers of the faithful:
We present our prayers to our heavenly Father: 
1. That the leaders of the Church may preach with faith & courage, spreading the Gospel message throughout the world.
2. That our governmental leaders will gain wisdom from God during these challenging times as they lead their people.  
3. That Christian missionaries may be blessed and protected.
4. That those who are recovering from the recent storms & hurricanes & wildfires in different parts of the United States may receive the assistance that they need.  We pray for aid workers and all who are helping in the recovery process.  
5. That we may continue to care for our neighbors — in good days and bad.  We pray for those who are struggling with depression, mental illness, and addictions.  
6. That our community may be strengthened — and bring comfort, healing and life to all parishioners.
7. For the sick & shut-in - for the repose of the souls of the faithful departed.
Heavenly Father, as we are gathered by the word of life, as we are supported by the power of the sacraments, as we advance in the way of salvation and love, wee ask our prayers through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, as he is our Lord forever and ever.
