26 September 2024 - Thursday of the 25th week in Ordinary Time - prayers of the faithful

Lord Jesus, you bring healing to us and you forgive us our sins. 

Christ Jesus, you bring us the Father's love. 

Lord Jesus, you came that we might have life in its fullness.

Prayers of the faithful:

Priest: We present our prayers to our heavenly Father: 

1. That the leaders of the Church may preach with faith and courage, spreading the Gospel message throughout the world.

2. That our governmental leaders will gain wisdom from God during these challenging times as they lead their people.  

3. That Christian missionaries may be blessed and protected.

4. That we may continue to care for our neighbors — in good days and bad.  We pray for those who are struggling with depression, mental illness, and addictions.  

5. That our community may be strengthened. May comfort, healing, and new life be brought to all parishioners.

6. For the sick & shut-in. For the repose of the souls of the faithful departed. For the souls in purgatory. 

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

Priest: Heavenly Father, as we are gathered by the word of life and as we are supported the sacraments, we present our prayers through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, as he is our Lord forever and ever.
