Lord Jesus - you bring us new life.
Christ Jesus - you call us to be humble servants.
Lord Jesus - you lead us to salvation.
As members of the Body of Christ, let us join our voices with the community of saints as we present our prayers to God:
1. For the Church: that we may recognize the ways God is present and active in our lives so that we may cooperate with him more fully.
2. For openness on our journey of faith: that we may respond to God’s call to eternal life and recognize that salvation comes not from our efforts but as a gift from God.
3. For the grace of humility: that we may come to a deeper understanding of our gifts and acknowledge our need for God amidst our weaknesses.
4. For deeper intimacy with God: that we may experience the tenderness of the Good Shepherd who cares for us as we draw closer to God in prayer and service.
5. For the faithful departed: for their entry into eternal life.
6. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today.
With faith and joy, we present our prayers through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
