prayers of the faithful on the feast of St Mary Magdalene - 22 July 2021

Lord Jesus - you bring us hope. 

Christ Jesus - you bring us salvation. 

Lord Jesus - you call us to reconciliation.  


In the midst of the challenges of life, the Lord invites us to trust in him and present our needs to him. 

1. That the Church may always proclaim, faithfully and joyfully, the presence of Christ, our hope of glory. 

2. That all public officials may seek to secure the God-given rights of the people, proclaiming a respect for all human life. 

3. That the gift of hospitality may fill our families and communities and may it shape the way we respond to the terminally ill, the unborn, and all people. 

4. That those in the Church dedicated to contemplation and solitude may be faithful to their call and persevere in prayer. 

5. That the sick may find peace in uniting their sufferings with the sufferings of Christ for the sake of His Body the Church. 

6. That all who have died may have eternal rest and peace. 

7. For the prayers we hold in our hearts. 

 Heavenly Father, we rejoice in how close you are to your people. Hear our prayers and give us the grace to serve you joyfully. We ask this through Christ our Lord forever and ever. Amen.
