prayers of the faithful - 33rd Sunday in Ordinary Time - 14 November 2021

Lord Jesus - you teach us how to pray. 

Christ Jesus - you call us to faith. 

Lord Jesus - you bring us hope. 

With hearts united in prayer and hope, let us come before our gracious and loving Father with our needs:

1. For Pope Francis, Bishop Kopacz and all our Church leaders: that they may continue to gently guide us to the Lord through the power of the Holy Spirit.  We want to pray especially for Bishop Kopacz and all the US Bishops attending their annual meeting in Baltimore this week.  

2. For those in health and public safety: that God will work through them to impart healing and strength to all who seek their assistance. 

3. For the poor and the suffering: that we may open our hearts to hear their cries and respond as the Lord’s hands and feet on earth. 

4. For married couples: that they may grow in true love, witnessing to God's intimate presence in their lives. 

5. For all who are sick: that God’s healing love may renew and strengthen them.                                                                                    

6. For the repose of the souls of the faithful departed during this month of remembrance.  

7. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts.  

Gracious God, we ask that you hear these prayers offered in humility and hope.  In your infinite wisdom, grant them according to your will. We ask this through you son, Christ our Lord forever and ever.  AMEN.
