Lord Jesus - you are a light shining in the world.
Christ Jesus - you bring healing into our lives.
Lord Jesus - you are the son of the Father
We bring our prayers to our heavenly Father with humility, faith, and hope.
1. For the Church and our Church leaders: that we may shine forth in the light of Christ each day and confidently live as sons and daughters of God.
2. For those receiving the sacraments of baptism, first communion or confirmation during the Easter season: that they may faithfully follow Jesus and keep the light of Christ burning in their lives
3. For protection from violence, terrorism, and war: that God will protect the human family from destructive violence and the killing of innocent persons
4. For all who have died: that they may touch Christ and be one with him for all eternity. We pray especially for the souls in purgatory.
5. For our children and youth: that they may live and grow in peace, celebrating God's love each day of their lives, and for a good end to their studies school year.
6. For those who need healing body, mind and spirit. For God's healing presence in their lives.
7. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today.
We present our prayers today through the light of Easter joy and through your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
