Lord Jesus - you bring us hope.
Christ Jesus - you encourage us on our journey of faith.
Lord Jesus - you draw us out of complacency.
We now present our prayers to our heavenly Father:
1. For the Church, that we would bring a message of healing, wholeness, and joy to our world.
2. For the world, that our governmental leaders would help us leave behind attitudes of spite, vengeance, and revenge.
We ask: Lord, hear your people’s prayer.
3. No matter what our status in life, whether we be engaged, married, single, widowed, or in a professed religious state, may we be committed to living out the specific vocation to which God calls us.
4. That we would be inspired toward a deeper commitment to help and welcome those who are poor, suffering, hated or marginalized by society.
5. In this week of prayer for Christian unity, we pray for unity for the unity of all Christians, that we would work toward healing our wounds, barriers and divisions, so that together we may find more effective ways to bring healing to our broken world.
6. For all who have lost hope. May they believe that miracles can restore their lives. May they find inspiration in faith and strength through prayer.
7. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today.
We present our prayers with humble hearts through your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
