6 July 2023 - Prayers of the faithful - Thursday of the 13th week in Ordinary Time

Lord Jesus - You are the son of the living God.

Christ Jesus - You are our savior and our redeemer. 

Lord Jesus - You nourish us with your body and blood in the Eucharist. 

With faith and hope, we bring our prayers to our heavenly Father this evening. 

1. For the Church: that we may hear God’s call to discipleship and seek first the reign of God in our lives. 

2. For evangelization: may we in our parish and in the entire Diocese of Jackson strive to bring back the lost sheep and to evangelize our parishes and our community.

3. For all who strive to hear the call to discipleship: that God’s word may touch their hearts and guide them into a deeper knowledge of God. 

4. For all who feel impelled to violence: that the Spirit of God will calm their anger and help them recognize each person as a child of God. 

5. For all who are recovering from natural disasters, whether they be storms, drought, wildfire, tornadoes, or floods: that God will protect them from further harm, guide them to the resources that they need, and open the hearts of many to assist them. 

6. For healing for the sick.  For the faithful departed, for their entry into eternal life. 

7. For the prayers in the silence of our hearts. 

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