Lord Jesus - you call us out of our weaknesses
Christ Jesus - you are the word of God.
Lord Jesus - you call us to repentance and conversion.
As we celebrate St Luke the Evangelist today on his feast day, we present our prayers to our loving and merciful God:
1. For all of our Church leaders who lead us and guide us in the faith. May they help us grow in wisdom and charity.
2. As St Luke was a physician, we pray for all physicians and medical professional, especially during these challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic. May their hard work and talents be a service of love and mercy to our community.
3. For all missionaries throughout the world, for all who spread the word of God to others.
4. For all students, may the Lord lead them and guide them in their studies and their activities throughout this school year.
5. For the sick and shut-ins and for the repose of the souls of the faithful departed, we pray to the Lord.
6. For those prayers we hold in our hearts today.
You called St Luke to be a missionary of your Gospel. Help us all recognize our missionary calling. We present these prayers to you through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
