Lord Jesus - you tend your lambs - Lord have mercy.
Christ Jesus - you feed your sheep - Christ have mercy.
Lord Jesus - you shepherd your flock - Lord have mercy.
With faith and hope in the risen Christ, we present our prayer to our God of love and mercy:
1. For the Church throughout the world. May our faith in God’s love for us be expressed in our love for one another. We pray to the Lord.
2. For peace in our world. May all lands that suffer violence and injustice work toward peace and reconciliation. We pray to the Lord.
3. For the poor, the homeless, the afflicted, and the unemployed. May our care and concern for those in need be a sign of God’s love and mercy. We pray to the Lord.
4. For the protection and sanctity of human life. May all people be treated with the dignity they deserve. May we respect all human life from the moment of conception to the moment of natural death. We pray to the Lord.
5. For our youth who received the sacrament of confirmation earlier this month. May they grow in wisdom and grace on their journey of faith. We pray to the Lord.
6. For the sick and shut-ins. For those who need healing and in their lives in body, mind, and spirit. We pray to the Lord.
7. For the prayers we hold in our hearts today. We pray to the Lord.
Priest: Heavenly Father, you are present in our midst. We pray that you continue to lead us and guide us as we celebrate the Easter season. We present our prayers through the risen Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
