19 July 2024 - prayers of the faithful - Friday of the 15th 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. 

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

1. For Pope Francis, Bishop Kopacz, and all our Bishops and church leaders, that God will help them 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. 

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

4. That the Holy Spirit may guide our governmental leaders in addressing issues of violence, injustice, and poverty. 

5. For healing of families and communities. For those who are struggling with mental health issues, depression, or addiction. That God bring healing into their lives and restore them 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 hearts. 

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