5 JULY 2023 - prayers of the faithful - Wednesday of the 13th week in Ordinary Time

Lord Jesus - You call us to be missionary in spirit. 

Christ Jesus - You bring us hope. 

Lord Jesus - You bring us your Good News. 

With hope and faith, let us bring our prayers to our heavenly Father this morning: 

1. For Pope Francis: that God will renew him, heal him of his infirmities, and help him lead the Church to greater service, love and unity. 

2. For families who are traveling, the Lord keep them safe.  And may the Lord continue to bless the children and youth in their summer activities, especially for Vacation Bible School at our parish. 

3. For all who are called to bear prophetic witness: that their witness to the truth may touch hearts and be an opportunity for deeper conversion for all God’s people. 

4. For our elected officials: that the Spirit will guide them in addressing issues of violence, injustice and poverty, and to work more diligently for those who are oppressed or forgotten by society. 

5. For healing of families and communities: that those touched by violence, anger, division, or addictions may heal and reconcile and be brought to wholeness. 

6. For our families members, loved ones, and community members who have died, for their entry into eternal life. 

7. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our heart:


We present these prayers through your Son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
