21 August 2024 - prayers of the faithful - Wednesday of the 20th week in Ordinary Time

Lord Jesus - you call us to have faith in you.

Christ Jesus - you are the beloved son of the Father. 

Lord Jesus - you call us to God’s love.

Priest: The Lord is at our side to support us and guide us. Let us present our needs to God today with confidence and hope.

1. For all Christians, that they may be found ready when the Savior comes again in glory.

2. For all Church leaders, that they may be faithful messengers of God’s healing and forgiveness.

3. For those who live in fear or anger, for those who struggle with addictions, depression, and mental illness, that God’s living word may be their support.

4. For the bereaved and the grieving, that they may find healing and wholeness in their lives.

5. For those who suffer in illness in body, mind or spirit, that God’s love may help them to endure and to bring healing into their lives.

6. For the faithful departed, that they may awake to everlasting life. We pray for the souls in purgatory.

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

Priest: O Lord, you are our portion and our cup. You support us all the days of our lives.  We ask that you hear the prayers we make for all your Church and for those in need, though Jesus Christ our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
