Lord Jesus - you call us to holiness.
Christ Jesus - you call us to repentance.
Lord Jesus - you call us to conversion.
As we journey through the days of the holy season of Lent, we bring our prayers to our heavenly Father:
1. For the Church: that we may listen with our minds and hearts to God’s beloved Son and be transformed by his words.
2. For a spirit of gratitude: that we may look beyond our daily routines and see God’s blessings in our lives.
3. For a deeper understanding of our baptismal call: that we may grow in our covenant relationship with God and in our identity as his sons and daughters.
4. For courage on our journey of faith: that we may join Jesus in journeying toward Jerusalem as we live out our vocation and use our resources to continue Christ’s mission here on earth.
5. For a deepening of hope: that even though negative and doubting messages abound in our society, we may be confident that God will never abandon us.
6. For peace in the world. We pray especially for a peaceful resolution to war and violence.
7. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts.
We present these prayers in humility and gratitude through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
