Lord Jesus - you call us to a life of holiness.
Christ Jesus - you bring us new life.
Lord Jesus - you are the resurrection.
In the light of Easter joy, we bring our prayers to our loving God.
1. For the Church: that through the gift of the Holy Spirit, we may recognize God’s presence with us and profess that Jesus in our redeemer and savior.
2. For all the newly baptized and those who have entered the Church through a profession of faith: that their faith may continue to grow and that they may generously offer loving service to those in need
3. For the gift of peace: that Christ’s gift may abide with us and sustain us through all the challenges of life. May we all work toward reconciliation and healing in our lives.
4. For a spirit of openness: that we may be open to God’s love and forgiveness, which God abundantly pours out for us.
5. For God’s healing presence in our lives, for healing for all of us in body, mind, and spirit.
6. For the faithful departed, for our deceased family members, for their entry into eternal life.
7. For the prayers we hold in our hearts this morning.
With simplicity and humility of heart, we present our prayers through your Son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
