Lord Jesus - you reach out to the broken hearted.
Christ Jesus - you are the savior of the world.
Lord Jesus - you bring us new life.
Priest: With humble hearts, let us now present our prayers to our heavenly Father:
1. For all who are affected by winter weather throughout the country, that they be kept safe from harm.
2. For the Christians of the Holy Land, that they may find ways to witness to the Good News of God's saving love and work with all their neighbors and to help them build a peace based on justice and respect.
5. For all who are away from home, particularly members of the military and relief workers, that God will keep them safe, help them fulfill their duties, and bring them home when their duties have been completed.
4. For all who are suffering economically, that God will protect and guide those who are facing eviction, have lost employment, or who struggle to have enough to eat.
5. That God will heal the sick, strengthen the caregivers, and guide and encourage our medical professionals.
6. That Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, may enlighten minds and hearts to resolve disputes with words and deeds of compassion, and turn human hearts from violence and domination.
7. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts.
Priest: With faith and hope, we preset these prayers through your son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
