Lord Jesus - you call us to be missionary in spirit.
Christ Jesus - you call us to have hope in the Gospel message.
Lord Jesus - you are the word of God.
Priest: With joy in our hearts, let us now present our prayers to our heavenly Father:
1. That our Church leaders will guide us to a greater love and appreciation for the Eucharist.
2. That the fire of the Holy Spirit will embolden us in the Church to give witness to God and to courageously follow the example of our Lord Jesus Christ.
3. That we may embrace the cross of Jesus Christ as we experience opposition, hardship or rejection on our journey of faith, allowing God to raise us to new life.
4. For all who are persecuted for the sake of the Gospel, that God will protect and sustain those who risk their lives to bring the Gospel message to those in unsafe or distant places.
5. That the Holy Spirit will grant us wisdom and humility in the spiritual and corporal works of mercy we carry out in our daily lives.
6. For the sick and the shut in, for healing in their lives. For the repose of the souls of the faithful departed, for their entry into enteral life with God.
7. For the prayers we hold in the silence of our hearts.
Priest: As journey through October as the month of the missions and as respect life month, we present our prayers through your Son Jesus Christ, our Lord forever and ever. AMEN.
