Lord Jesus - you came to earth as a humble servant - Lord have mercy.
Christ Jesus - you are the son of our Heavenly Father and the son of Mary - Christ have mercy.
Lord Jesus - you meet us in our grief and in our sorrow - Lord have mercy.
Prayers of the faithful:
Priest: Let us unite our prayers with the prayers of Mary today to pray for our needs, the needs of the Church, and the needs of the world.
1. For our governmental leaders and Church leaders - that they may be faithful disciples like Mary, our Blessed Mother.
2. That all the nations of the world and their leaders may work for true economic justice and peace.
3. For the poor, the stranger, and the oppressed - that they may be welcomed by our community.
4. That all youth, like Mary, may be open their hearts to God’s call in their lives, that they may say “yes” to serving others.
5. That we may trust in Mary’s intercession and imitate her virtues.
6. For the sick and shut-ins, the repose of the souls of the faithful departed, and for the prayers we hold in our heart.
Priest: Gracious God, you chose Mary to bear our Savior. Hear the prayers of your children and grant them in the name of your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever.
