Prayers of the faithful - Wednesday of the 33rd week of Ordinary Time - 22 November 2023

Lord Jesus - you call us to repentance. 

Christ Jesus - you forgive us our sins.   

Lord Jesus - you will come again in glory. 

Priest: We present our prayers to our heavenly Father with humble hearts: 

1.  For our Church leaders and our governmental leaders - may they lead us away from division and violence to unity and reconciliation.  

2. For those making new commitments in their lives: that God will fill with hope those getting married, becoming new parents, making religious profession, or entering new careers. That God will guide them through all the joys and sorrows of life’s journey. 

3. For all who are struggling in life and for all who have little hope: that God will open new opportunities and give them encouragement on their journey. 

4. That God will guide those who have fled violence, famine, or natural disasters, that he will keep them safe from harm, and lead them to places of safety. 

6. For the repose of the souls of the faithful departed. For their entry into eternal life. We remember those names inscribed in our book of remembrance. 

7. For healing for the sick in body, mind, and spirit. 

8. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today.  

Priest: We present these prayers through your son Jesus Christ our Lord forever and ever.
